Ruby Reef Rally Pro has arrived.
Could you tell me if you think that I should use it on the display tank? or if I should get a uv light? or leave it fallow for 6 weeks?
There are no other animals in the display tank.
The small clown was never symptomatic.
The large clown responded positively both times we did H2O2 baths, but not for the formalin bath.
They are both in a quarantine tank, and I dosed it once with Kanaplex yesterday, will do a second dose tomorrow and third dose on Friday.
Thank you for your opinions and help

Ruby Rally is reef safe and while can be used in display, I recommend quarantine as Id rather anything dislodge in QT tank versus display tank Plus you will use less treatment in QT tank versus display.
UV will address what is free floating and not Pre-existing.
Kanaplex will address but bacterial, so you can cease that treatment
If going fallow which never hurts, period is 6-8 weeks , no longer 76 days although you can extend this

I'm not sure I fully understand.
Do you think it was not bacterial? That was our working assumption from post #5, therefore the kanaplex.

Its bacterial. Dont use both at same time, why I said cease kanaplex.
To avoid confusion, Originally It was thought to be Brook, then ruby was an option and then determined with better pics to be bacterial- Kanaplex. It appears you got the rub and want to utilize it, reason I said to cease Kanaplex.
While they can be mixed, it is Not advisable.

OK, I think I understand.
I don't want to use the Ruby Reef instead of the Kanaplex: since I have started the Kanaplex already I'd like to see it through.
I was just wondering if it would help the display tank, but it seems like your advice is to either not worry about the display tank or to leave it fallow for 6 weeks or more.
I can keep the Ruby Reef on hand for the next time, if we have a problem in the quarantine tank with future additions.

Fallow recommended

Just a quick update: the clowns have been in QT tank for a month, and all is well. They are both healthy and active. Looking forward to putting them back in the display tank in a couple of weeks.
