Qt help

[mattb2989]

Hi all so after losing a few fish this week in qt. After some help and advice. Qt left going is at day 15 of copper power being at 2.50ppm cu. I was using black drain guttering from b & q. Looked ok on the product info but have removed this incase it was leaching something harmful. Have just a foxface and 2 clowns left now. Not seen any flashing, no flashing on the fish that died either. The 2 ammonia badges have stayed yellow. But thats not to say i had a spike somewhere. Have been doing my wc regardless of badges showing yellow still. What am i doing wrong?? Is there any pvc tubing that is 100% qt safe in the uk you can recommend? Meds i have are copper power, metroplex, prazipro, general cure, myaxzin. Any help welcome. Ive attached 2 pics of the fish left. Note food on bottom has just gone in

You can use clay garden pots if you can't find large pvc.
Also other fw aquarium decor like the skulls or large fish holes and hides.

I can't give any advice on qt and treating with medicine sorry.

Thank you. Wont the clay absorb any of the copper?

There's. Difference between. Qt tank and hospital tank.
Like I said. I can't help with any medicine...such as copper. I think its stressful on the fish and more detrimental than helpful.
