Always something’s new

Have this rabbit that was in an sps tank. Wanted to move him into an lps tank that we put up. He was first fish into that new tank along with a Melanurus wrasse. Both just went through 30 days copper power with NFG and ended QT cycle with doses of general cure. Should have covered all the bases on parasites. Other fish that went through the same qt at the same time went into other tanks look great.

He continues eating. But Today he is continually sliming off with what appears to be air bubbles in the slime off sheets. His body has these dots all over. Not white and don’t appear raised. There is a large garden of torches and frog spawn in this tank. Do these look like stings or ?? #reefsquad

Probably stress. Rabbits will show all sorts of issues when stressed out. How long has he been in the new tank?
 
It's possible for it to be stings from the coral, especially if you have seen him rub into them.

The other option I would consider is Turbellarians. The GC should have taken care of them if dosed correctly but I wouldn't rule it out.
 
He moved in on Sunday. There was two protocols of GC - one on the front side on days 1,3,7 and again at the end of the 30 day cycle after copper.
