I cannot use copper at this time. I cant get any soon, or a test kit. I'm using Humblefish's Hybrid TTM

I am so sorry. Tangs can be such a pain with ich and velvet. My best wishes go out to you and your father. Hope she pulls through.

Thank you very much

Wondering if theres anything else I should do or watch for....

Antibiotics?

I have metroplex. Okay. I'll look into that.

So.... update:

It did not work for me. It worked, while I was doing it. Ralph was looking better and better. Couldnt see anymore disturbances in her thin slime coat. Her color was back to normal.

But it is definitely back, in the temporary tank while the DT goes fallow. I'm not sure if I did something wrong. I used separate setups for each transfer, cleaned and dried in between.

I cannot get my hands on copper right now, my van broke down last week. Just my luck right now, of course.

And anyone following along about my dad, they removed the cancer from his tongue, and then removed his lymph nodes from the left side of his neck. No cancer showing in the tests. So. Yay! Now, to beat velvet's butt!

TTM has worked for me many many times. Never failed. Only for ICH.
Never used any medications.

You have to ensure you get the timing right (Never go too late for the Transfer), and do all the recommened # of transfers.

Are you going by this method?

I went through hunblefish's hybrid tank transfer method. I was not late on transfers, I actually moved them a couple hours early to make sure.

I'm just not sure I can handle doing it again, fish tanks on my countertop. But I might have to. No way to get copper quickly.

I was hoping for faster than that. I'm trying to get someone to pick some up for me.
