Unfortunately anytime you go below therapeutic levels with any copper you are starting over

Once I have u I have another question. I have a tank that I suspect has Uronema, fish had symptoms for weeks with no change! I am dosing the double dose like u told me 2 do and I feeding them metro laced food. They r all eating like pigs. What do I do?

Have none of the fish improved?
 
Phew.
You might be alright then, HF lists .4 as the bottom of therapeutic range.
Phew! But the same tank is the issue with Uronema. I have 3 chronos 1 small hippo tang and a small clown fish. There is only 1 chromis showing symptoms. But he had those spots for weeks

I’m not a Uronema expert only a victim lol. Let’s see what @HotRocks or @4FordFamily has to say.
 
Thanks for bringing in the big guns. I'm thinking of just adding the hippo tang and clown and leaving the chromis in there

I would not do that until you have resolution on the infected Chromis.

Agree I’d add metroplex and focus to their food and treat with metroplex in the water for 14 days to treat uronema since it’s external and internal. No reason to risk it IMO. We use metro with copper frequently.

I have been doing that for 3 weeks already

Three weeks with both, are all fish eating it?

It could be the wound healing, if so
 
Yes all 3 r eating it and it's not healing at all. Has not gotten better. What should I do?
They have been in metroplex re-dosed every 48 hours for 14 full days?
