hi. I posted before about my multi colored angel having white blotches on her fins. I have her in QT now with copper and prazi-pro. 3 days and I haven't seen any improvement. She has now stopped eating. She was eating the last 3 days and she has stopped. I don't know what she has. I thought it was flukes but now I don't know. Here are some photos. Any help is appreciated or if you have seen those spots in your experience and know what it is.

It's so hard to tell from the photos -- but angels get lymph a lot, which is harmless most of the time.
From what little I can see I don't think it looks like velvet or even ich but angels do come with velvet frequently these days.
If it stopped eating, did you check for ammonia with the ammonia alert badge by seachem?
Also, live blackworms and live brine are irresistible to a remotely healthy fish.

If Prazipro is having no effect on it, I would assume something bacterial and dose an antibiotic: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/antibiotics.283711/

Good advice above, could well be an infection as noted!

Since you have live rock in that tank you need to be checking your copper levels at least daily and preferably twice a day. If this fish does have Velvet (as you suspect your other fish do from a previous thread) then it is critical to keep copper at therapeutic levels at all time. The rock can absorb copper and you will need to test and add copper regularly if it is occurring.
And definitely check ammonia. Copper will kill much of what is in live rock which will cause further ammonia release.
