I have a new batch of fish in my QT, two banggai cardinals and a yellow corris wrasse. I introduced them, did a round of Prazi Pro, waiting 48 hours did a 50% water change and now have started to slowly ramp up my copper concentration.
So far I have dosed about 2.5 ML into a 20 gallon tank. My plan was to space out the dosing over 6-7 days in 20 or 21 doses (three times a day)
My problem is my wrasse is showing signs of an ich outbreak. He's flashing on one spot, I can see an abrasion starting to form from his flashing. Additionally there are currently a couple of white spots on his tail and dorsal fin.
Should I speed up the dosing of copper power to reach therapeutic levels sooner than 7 days, or let it ride out to protect the wrasse which might be sensitive to the copper?
All three fish are eating fine, the cardinals are not showing any symptoms.
