Ann, we should all have ourn
QT tank for our inhabitants,considering how cheap a glass cube & power head is! but thats a personal comment from me!
as for treatment, if it was my fish, i would be dosing melafix as of yesterday to stop any possible infection for showing its ugly head.
im old school on this product> once again personally i would never be without it!
we have done the research on the top minds in the field about any negative effects on the reef enviroment, non have been found to date. although corals dont like it in the main display they do make it though. but thats what a
QT tank is for, more so for a sick fish!
dreams just treated here tank with the product> more like a calculated risk per say, but as expected came out with the results your after!
i do hope u manage to save the fish. regals are pleasent animals. & for your sake because of the last tragic hit!
as for moving fish from location to location, i have a d-cell fueled battery air pump connected to a sealable lid bucket as a perminant addition to my equiptment for such occasions. i also bring them home in this!
