So I’ve got a Blue Hippo and Tomini in WT finishing copper treatment tomorrow. The Blue Hippo is occasionally scratching on the back wall and PVC in the tank. Does he have something and if so can I cure it? I can’t remember if I FW dipped them before entering QT. These will be the inhabitants in my 90gal build. Thanks!

May be flukes or other irritant
You can either give fish 5 min freshwater dip or apply prazi pro treatment

Prazi Pro is the next step after the copper treatment. Is a FW dip necessary if using Prazi Pro or do they accomplish the same thing?

Thanks!

Freshwater dip will offer temporary relief and buy you time- not a cure
