Well, I guess since we are keeping everyone up to date..

Ya, so I picked up the fish yesterday from Brian, they weren't looking so hot. The Pink Tail Trigger looked like he wasn't going to make the trip back to my place. In the end it was the Mystery wrasse that didn't make the trip. He had a huge gash on his throat that looked like someone attacked and bit him or he got injured somehow. Sadly he was dead when I opened the bucket. First round of cupramine last night. This morning I noticed the two Perculas and the Pink Tail was eating (garlic soaked pellets and flakes). Niger still hiding in rocks. So that is positive that the Pink Tail Trigger went from a write off to swimming around and eating. The Perculas and the Yellow tang looked the strongest so I gave them a fresh water dip. I think that helped them out a lot, especially the clowns because the clowns were really dusted up like baby powder. That's all cleared up now.

Here's my QT/Hospital rig. Up top is a 45g and down below is a 33g.



Pink Tail hanging out with one of the Perculas.



Copper treatments can be pretty stressful on fish too so let's cross our fingers..

Hay mod can you put Kien, the fish doctor under his name.....
It's good of Kien to do this for Brian or anyone for that matter.

Cheers for Kien.

Just fed the fish and they all came out to eat, including the Niger trigger that was hiding under a rock since I put them in yesterday evening. In quarantine is the Niger Trigger, Pink Tail Trigger, Yellow tang and two Perculas.
