There has to be a LFS in the Detroit metro that has live brine. Call around, if you haven't.

I've called 6 so far. No luck. Going to try more today but they will be 1hr+ drives.

He eats every time I feed him now. All I put in there was general cure

Nice! I was just about to suggest trying to feed LRS, my trigger can't get enough.

General cure did the trick, today internal parasutes are a big problem, lfs run low sg which hold them at bay and maybe even fish will be eating at the lfs. Once you bring the sg up, the parasites explode and crashes the fish's appetite. Usually within a day or two of starting gc, problem solved.

That's great info. Should I still do the second dose which is 5-7 days after?

That is best practice to make sure that you get all the eggs.

Awesome, that was the plan. Any harm in doing a 3rd dose?

Yes, but I think its 2 days between doses, I think the 5-7 days you are thinking of is prazi pro.

No, for sure thinking gc: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/general-cure-treatment.369458/

But I think the days between treat different things

Its best to follow the manufactures instructions rather than instructions from other hobbyist. Look it up real quick on API website. I do 2 doses 2 days apart.
