Do you have any pics of him from quarantine? Mine looks horrible as far as looks but he still stays at the middle cllum so he mudt not be suffering too badly
Unfortunately no photos but he came through the treatment just fine. When you say looks horrible how so? Is he twitching or swimming erratically? Those would be cues your particular fish isn’t handling the copper. Mine never exhibited any abnormal behavior.
No hes swimming fine. His swimming patterns arent erreatic and are normal. He just looks horrible and isnt eating
Loss of appetite is also a side effect of copper. My fish did lose appetite as well during treatment but never stopped eating completely. You have a little wiggle room with your copper level to lower it a hair but everything I’ve read and had success with personally says to stay in the 2.25-2.5 range. Looking at the pictures he does look rough. Loss of appetite could be temporary due to the sudden exposure to copper or could be from advanced stage of what looks like ich?? Hopefully one of the more experienced forum members with extensive knowledge of qt process and fish disease can chime in and give more advanced advice. Just trying to point you in the right direction as best I can.
How long has it been at full dose copper power?
ITs been in there for 3 days, but wouldnt matter now as it passed away last night
