Posted under fish by accident, reposting here.
I purchased a flame angel and blue tang and put them in two separate tanks. One was my QT and the other was my new display with no other fish in it (does have live rock and coral).
I tried treating the flame angel with cupramine in the QT. I started with the recommended half dose for the first 48 hours and 12 hours later it was dead. I know angels are sensitive to copper but had been reading that cupramine was safe for angels. What other method would have been a better choice? I have had little luck with hypo salinity.
I removed the blue tang from my new display and he is currently in QT. He is still at the half dose of cupramine and he seems fine. How long does my new display not need to remain fishless. 2 months to be safe? My old display is still housing all my healthy fish.
