I have a Regal Tang with what appears to be eye clout. The problem is I need to catch him and put him in my qt tank to treat it and I cannot catch it. After a couple unsuccessful tries at catching him now the minute the net hits the water he hits the rocks.
I need suggestions on what to do. I really can’t move the rocks because of the corals. I have Melafix that I have used in fw applications and it claims to be invertebrate safe but my lfs guy says it won’t be strong enough.
Also I read that the usual cause of this is poor water conditions. WHAT By no means do I have poor water. My nitrates are below 10 and the only thing different I did was:
I bought a Acro frag and a Fan Sponge and put them in
I ran out of salt and my lfs buddy gave me a bag of Crystal Sea Marine Mix to mix up and try a wc with. I did a small pwc of about 8gal and my tank is 75gal.
Salt would not carry a parasite right? Could it have been introduced by the sponge or frag? The tank they were in has a Sailfin Tang in it that is doing fine so I don’t think that is it.
Suggestions/advice?
TIA
