Hi Lee,
I picked up a freshly shipped yellow coris wrasse on Thursday (he hit the LFS on Wednesday). I put him in a QT tank with the first half dose of cupramine......on Saturday I went to the full dose and i'v slowly seen him slow down.....then today he really slowed down and now i'm concerned. he is still breathing and moving when spooked but definitely not right.
I read that coris wrasses are not good candidates for copper treatments......but i wanted to check with you. I have him out of the QT now into another tank with regular SW in an effort to save him but we will see.
Would you recommed anything particular to try and save him? I think the copper put a hurtin on him.
For the future, how would you treat a yellow coris wrasse for ich?
Thanks
