hey guys.

My Golden Dearf Moray is currently in qt.

What i did untill now is get her eating without medication which took a few days. I fed her like 3 times total and started General cure treatment. I got an ammonia spike there because my filter wasnt running properly so i had to do an emergency waterchange and dosed prime there. No issues since.

After 2 doses of gc.

I changed like 50% water and tried feeding after a day.

Now i plan on doing 21days Chloroquine Phosphate. Theres like 2 more weeks and she hasnt eaten since theres medication in the water.

Its common for morays to go on hungerstrikes for up to a month afaik. Also shes looking healthy and is active.

I also know its common for fish to show less intrest in food while in treatment.

What would u guys do? Im currently on the fence of putting him in my dt directly or removing medication from qt completely. But in the end id have to redo treatment anyways so what should i do best? Im offering different foods allready but since i had her eating allready i doubt the food is the issue.

Thanks for Advice!
 
I'd give a little time before adding cp to get a couple meals down.
Sry that mightve sounded wrong. I started cp a week ago so i think about removing the cp from from the tank or maybe decrease concentration with some freshly mixed water.
