Hi Guy, I really need some help, I have my Achilles for 2 months now and he has broken out with a really bad case or either Ich or Velvet I am not sure, I noticed it Yesterday and started a Formulin treatment however it’s worse today, he stopped eating this morning, I did a freshwater dip on him to see if anything came off him however his clean, I am not sure if Formulin is going to work because it’s pretty bad and the rest of the fish in my quarantine are starting to show signs of the same, should I continue with the formulin or stop and switch to a Cupramine, if show what’s a safe way to get the formulin out of the system that’s quick.
Thanks
 
These guys notorious for velvet acquisition.
Give it a freshwater dip for temporary relief and then quarantine and treat with copper safe or similar- BUT- make sure what you use says “ Treats OODINUM “
Also have a reliable copper kit ready to monitor copper levels and not api brand either
