Hey everyone. Sadly my lineatus did not make it through the night. I am going to go ahead and do the acriflavin bath for my remaining 2 wrasses who were in QT with him, do a 100% water change in the QT, and dose it with metroplex, kanaplex, and furan-2. Thank you everyone who responded and helped me.

Sorry for your loss. Gram negative was my instant first thought as well, but that's a moot point now.
Cirrhilabrus do no bury in the sand.
Quite simply, neither one of those statements are true. Yes, they are a touch more sensitive than the "bulletproof" fish available in the hobby, but there is nothing about them which should cause QT to be skipped or overtly difficult.

Thank you. I am hoping the other two make it as well. I am very sad that my Lineatus died. He was the one fish that I REALLY wanted and was waiting to come around. I wish that I had came on here and asked as soon as I noticed the white markings on his sides last week, but he was doing better and his appetite had returned the day after I dosed the Ruby Reef to the QT. This situation sucks, but it has been a good learning experience for me and I will be much better prepared the next time I have a sick fish.
Thank you evolved for responding. I really enjoyed your MACNA presentation on fairy wrasses.
