So i received my purple tang from LFS along with yellow that ended up having ich and transferred to Purple. Because i noticed ich on yellow tang day 2, I quickly ramped up Copper Power at 2.0ppm for 16 days and that seems to be solved. I typically ramp up Cu levels or 5-6 days but this was a life or death situation as i though *** could of been marine velvet.
Note: Both fish were in my 20 gallon long quarantine tank.
Unfortunately yellow died 2 weeks ago and now Purple has developed what looks to be HLLE and this weird ~1/8" diameter white spot near dorsal fin. I don't know if this is HLLE, if this is a bacteria infection or not. I've heard the Copper treatment can lead to HLLE.
I've removed all traces of Copper by utilizing Cuprisorb and ROX 0.8 carbon as of yesterday. I use RO/DI water only and 20-50% WC ever week.
I did a FW did for 3-4 minutes on my purple tang to see if any flukes came out and maybe there was 1 or 2 but it wasn't much.
Please help as I have Furan-2 and Kaniplex on hand as well as Prazipro.
Diet: He eats TDO Reef Nutrition small chromaboost pellets, he used to eat PE mysis but not anymore, and he won't touch Nori anymore (Just pulls it off and plays but doesn't eat).
Note: He was eating pellets like a pig and i would consider him a fat and happy purple tang but he won't eat lately.
