Ok so remember how I said I bought three damsels to cycle my tank and I took the black domino out and put him in my patents tank because they wanted him right. we'll there clown 2 black clown fish started picking on him and now he has patches on him I called the store where I got him from and he said he has crypto because he got stressed out and to put him by himself in a QT tank and give him pimafix so I have well today is the third day using it and he looks worse instead of better now he doesn't want to eat...... And yes I took out the carbon.... What should I do

And if I didn't make it clear he never made it to my tank to cycle parents wanted him as soon as I got him so he has been in there tank from day one and they have an established tank of 4 yrs

And all levels are good in there tank

Crypto is just another term for saltwater ich, you know that, right?

Well... As far treating it.. I think copper treatments are recommended.

I'd tell them to be cautious of their tank, other fish may develop it. Then they'd have to leave their tank vacant for 6-8 weeks for it die off.

 

[king8808]

Yeah I know about crypto but I really don't think he will make it he doesn't want to swim or eat and all this happened while I was I fl

That fish doesn't look like it has ich IMHO. Has the water in the qt been tested? How did you acclimate the fish?

 

[king8808]

Yes I keep the QT tank well tested and the pic I took was before I put him in the QT tank I have had the QT tank a few yrs

 

[king8808]

And I got the fish from a store where I live called animart

It could be, but it isn't definite. One of the spots resembles ich, the other just looks weird. I don't see what else it could have though.

U see why I'm puzzled
