My male Watanabe Angel has been in my QT for almost 5 weeks now. The first week was observation to make sure he was eating and ramp up to adequate copper levels. He's been in Coppersafe for the about 3 weeks and during that time I applied to 2 doses of PraziPro one week apart. He's been eating great for most of that time until last week at which time he started spitting out the food. He also looked like he was having trouble swimming, instead of his more graceful movements thru the water, he looked like he was kind of bouncing along. Last night, I took him out and did a Formalin-MS dip with the recommended dosage and also did a water change on the tank.
Today, he looks like he still has the swimming issues previously observed. Any thoughts on what I can do at this point? I'd hate to lose him, especially when trying to do the right thing and quarantine.
BTW, in the tank I have 4 other fish, all which are doing amazing, one of which is the female Watanabe, a Sailfin tang, a Magnificent Foxface and a Lieutenant Tang.
Thanks
John
