Hello all, I posted over the past few days on what I had suspected to be ich. This can be seen here.
As an update the following morning after the post I had anticipated starting treatment. Upon inspecting my fish, the fain dots or spots I had sawn only a few hours earlier could no longer be seen. Now I haven’t started any sort of treatment and my clowns are doing great. Nothing indicating otherwise that either may have been sick which has generally been the case. Having been my first experience with clowns, I just get super anxious and assume the worst as I really wanna do right by my clowns and keep them alive.
I guess my question now is what should I do if anything at all with my clowns? They are currently in an observation/QT and I’m checking parameters on a regular as to not have any toxic levels. Should I proceed with a copper treatment in the event my fish does have itch and try to eradicate it? What’s proper procedure any how if I want my DT to be free from any pest that may affect my fish in the future aside from having it run fallow for 70+ days?
