I was thinking metroplex also... I treated a coral beauty by adding it directly to the quarantine water. Cleared up the cloudy eyes and is supposed to treat some parasites as well

Day 2, clowns looking much better today!
I let the metroplex saturate in brine shrimp and focus over night in the fridge.
It appears the fresh water dip helped out quite a bit.... the bumps on the clown are receding! Slowly but surly, they do not look near as bad as they did yesterday. Time will tell! Could be the prazi?!
They are both eating like crazy so at least I know they have some meds running through them!

Hoping for a quick recovery! We will see, the struggle is real with these guys. Don’t want to jinx it still to early to tell if it’s going to work. Might have to source the other meds we have talked about!

Dose Prazipro once and then wait 5-7 days. Do a 20-25% water change and then dose again. Wait 5-7 days and then water change. The second dose is for any eggs the parasites may have laid and were unaffected by the initial dose.

Perfect thank you, I also need to start a Cypriot treatment on my Haddoni blue carpet... would it be crazy to change the water out completely and just run Cipro with the name and the clowns in the same tank 250 mg dose for 10 days?

Cypriot treatment
What is this treatment for? I’m very interested because this is the first I’ve heard of something treating an anemone

WHOOPS I meant ciprofloxacin!!! It’s a powerful antibiotic used to treat anemones for bacterial infections.
