HI,
Helping out a friend tret a couple of fish (Tang and flame)
Newly bought and showing a few signs of ich.
It's been a few years that I haven't treated for ich so just to make sure:
He'll be using Cupramine ( still waiting for him to confirm if thats what he's got)
-Please confirm how much to dose per Gallon of water and dosing regimen.
-He's got some caulerpa in his Q tank should he take it out before treating?
-should he take out carbon from the filter just for a week or for the 4 weeks of treatment?
-If he does a water change in 2-3 weeks should he dose Cupramine again?
-Will cupramin affect the ammonia alert and make it give false results?
Q tank has been running for few months with weekly water cahnges coming from the tank and bacteria additions. IT's got a few LR in it as well as a couple of mechanical filters with bioballs sponge and carbon.
Thanks
