Brooklynella

[Qbmafia444]

i have 2 clownfish and 1 just died from what I believe is brooklnella from what I posted in another forum with pics I posted the general conclusion was brook and now my other one does not look good he's swimming eradically and like vertically. However my green chromis and bangi cardinal seem fine and eat and look normal, my question is are they infected as well or will they be fine if my other clownfish passes or do I need to QT them

#Reefsquad can somebody move this to the Disease forum please?

Yes all fish have been exposed and will need to be treated in a QT while the DT is left fallow for 6 weeks. The best course of treatment is an acriflavine or formalin bath followed by 10-14 days of metroplex. Do you have a picture of your remaining clown?

Agreed ^^ If one fish have had or has it currently, the rest are at least carriers of it. Brook doesn't always negatively effect other fish the way it does clowns and damsels, but they all need to be treated the same and the fallow period for the display observed.

Done, though it takes a Mod to do that

Thank you I didn't know if we had any mods that were reefsquad or not also, thought we did.

Edit: do we guys have the @Mods or #Mods usergroup setup?

If you want a mods attention and it's helpful, you can report a post and say "disease forum" if you're sure that's what needs to happen. This can make their life easier.

Also I agree that you should treat all fish and run the tank fallow 76 days.
