Ok, here is my current situation, I have a running 120g that I'm performing the second round of prazi on. My issue is that since the skimmer has been off line (upgraded to a new skimmer + prazi dosing) GHA has massively taken off. I want to dose one more round of prazi to make sure that beast that is flukes is killed, but I'm also planning to dose reef Rx to battle the GHA (it's smothering my zoa colonies).

Should I just perform the large water change, 30gal as my 5th day of prazi is tomorrow 2/28 and then dose the reef Rx for gha or should I go with one more round of prazi or should I hold up with both, get the skimmer online and wait a few weeks then dose prazi again or reef Rx it.

I'm kinda stumped on what I should do... I know my n& p are probably off the charts (will check with Hanna tomorrow). How would you proceed?! Or suggestions on what else I should do. My nems didn't take the prazi and nutrient spike well, and they died off I don't want to loose the zoa frag/colonies too.

TIA for suggestions!
 
I had no luck with killing flukes using Prazipro. I think the best thing is to put the fish in a hospital tank and treat them with a copper medication. Let your tank go fallow that way you are not disturbing the chemistry.

I'm considering setting my 50g up for it. Everyone that survived is back to usual except two rabbit fish. They are still very secretive in the rock work. Catching them and pulling them is not on my list of things to do. That whole venomous spine thing, lol.
