damsel with ich not getting better

[DamselnDistress]

I have a damsel with ich or something that gives it white spots. It's been in the quarentine for 11 days and he's moving around a lot and acts healthy but he's not clearing up. What should I do?

[DamselnDistress]

sea cure

never heard of that, iv heard good things about coppersafe. since its a hardy fish have you tryed some thing with malachae(sp) green and copper, just make sure its not in your main tank.

SeaCure is an ionic copper and although not the most comforting of treatments, should still work if the levels are maintained properly.

What are the levels of copper and how often are you testing for them?

Cheers
Steve
