so i'm still not getting any results after 5 rounds of kanaplex dosed 48hrs apart.... it looks almost identical to when I started treating.

what the heck else can this be?

fresh water dip revealed no flukes or anything, kanaplex has no noticeable improvements... what's the next step?

thanks for your help really want to get this guy healthy again.

@Isomorphic85 I'd switch over to Furan-2 or another antibiotic next. Just like with humans, sometimes a particular infection will respond better to a different antibiotic.

Will it harm coral or snails?

Yes, if dosed directly into water. No, if binded to food using Seachem Focus.

However, going the food soak route is not the best way to treat an external infection. Dosing the water is.
