How do you keep these fish alive..
I really want a group of chromis but I have tried twice now with 2 different groups in quarantine and have lost them all to this disease.
I'm treating them with metroplex and coppersafe. With the second group I had the meds on hand and dosed them as soon as I put the fish in the quarantine and they still got it.
Im currently down to 4 of the 10 fish of this last group but 2 of them have the red sores now so I'm sure I will lose these 4 as well.
I have not tried any dips or freshwater baths with this last group but I did freshwater dip a couple fish in the first group after seeing red spots and that seemed to only make them worse.
I know tank transfer is an option but I only have one quarantine tank to use..
