Losing fish slowly

[4FordFamily]

Thanks! I figured that might be the case ... I have been in the hobby a while and follow a pretty strict water change/test/ regiment etc...

I have had sick fish before and even went through a fallow period for ich 5 or so years ago.. always had some symptoms or at least a new fish to point at etc...

I ordered prazipro for the remaining fish...wondering if I should go with that or try to pull them and QT all with something more significant?

If that doesn’t work I would remove fish and treat in copper and run the tank fallow to be safe.

My concern is how will I know it worked or not? Assuming the leopard doesn't make it, the other fish literally have no symptoms?

I am in the middle of a tank upgrade, so assuming they survive, I plan to QT them all and any new additions

Well I guess if you’re upgrading it’s almost a moot point. They’ll probably keep going, depending in the timeline for the upgrade.

I have ordered a 180 from my LFS and gathering parts etc. The plan is to have it wet by the new year or shortly after...

I'm gonna use the prazipro when it comes and then do a full treatment in QT before I transfer the remaining fish to the new tank...

I guess I should allow a fallow period while treating? 4 weeks or 6?

76 days, rules out ich and velvet both.

There is no way this is stray voltage right? I lost two sets of QT tank fish for what seemed at the time some crazy behavior with no visible symptoms.

Then I figured out when I turned on a faulty light above my sump it zapped my QT since they were all plugged into the same power strip. I won’t go without a grounding probe ever again.

I’d say no it’s highly unlikely. Fish aren’t as affected by it as we are as they’re not grounded.
