Seeking advice...
I started my first QT tank with much help of @4FordFamily a while back. Anyway after reaching fully therapeutic copper levels, all my tangs (Achilles, Purple, chocolate, Blue hippo, desjardini, and a yellow) are great. I also started with 2 leopard wrasse, 2 Bluestar leopards, 1 ornate leopard, 1 clown fairy, and a carpenter flasher. All the leopard wrasse fell before copper reached an therapeutic level. The clown fairy and carpenter are alive and feeding well. I am using coppersafe and maintaining a level of 2.0 or a bit above. I increased very slowly over 7-10 day period. Interested to see if anyone has tips or tricks for wrasse and copper. I also have a flame hawk, firefish, and a pair of pajama cardinals that are just fine in same QT.
Interested in your suggestions @Humblefish if you have time!
Thanks and happy Reefing!
