Aquarium Advice FINatic
i just lost my coral beauty in QT. i had him for one week and he was doing great. eating fine swimming around not really hiding. then i noticed one white spot one his head. having to empty my main once already i didnt want to risk my new fish having ick so i started a cupramine treatment. after the first day of of the full dosage ( 5 mgl ) the fish went down hill quickly and died. i did a water change in the morning and at night because the ammonia started to rise ( i asssume the copper killed the bacteria ) so i guess here is my question, are dwarf angels more sensitive to cupramine and copper? did i make the wrong move by treating so quickly? is there any harm in QTing all new fish in a hyposalinty enviroment? i was thinking of doing that instead of copper in the future. after one week of normal QT automatically going to a hypo treatment. sorry for the long post, but really thought i was taking care of this fish correctly and i would like to do better in the future
