I have been waiting the whole entire night wondering what the news would be.
Thank goodness this might finally be starting to settle down and die. I think about how tings are going for you an awful lot. Thanks goodness for good news for a change. You really are a trooper. I have panic attacks just thinking of what you must be going through. QUOTE=fishoholic;414112]WOOOOHOOO (all and all considering) today is the first day in a week that I didn't wake up to dead fish and I didn't come home to dead fish  My king was lethargic and not really moving around or eating the past 2 days and today she is swimming around a bit and she ate a bit too. The rest of the fish seem to be ok too. Other then the Sohal tang. The Sohal is swimming around eating lots and acting semi normal but his face is awful, literally half of the skin on his face has fallen off  Doesn't seem to be slowing him down, but it looks just awful. Also we finally caught the red corris wrasse today and she is now in QT with everyone else, seems to be doing fine in there.[/quote]

 Also (my boyfriend) Steve's brother and sister in law just stopped by and gave us a sympathy card and a $50 Big Als gift card  I have to say it was extremely nice and thoughtful of them to do so.

bout time thier was some good news, so you have all the fish in the qt now?,
my2rotties- never heard of people treating with copper while acclimating new fish, i have no idea how long it takes to have any benefit, i dont think it would do much in that ammount of time plus your exchanging water which would dilute the mix almost to nothing, if your puting the fish into a qt just treat them in there, im not one of those people who have seperate qt and hospital tanks seems a bit stupid to me to put a fish in a tank you dont want to medicate. the way i do things is the fish gets added to the qt, usually 1/2hour or so, streching out the process risks oxygen levels dropping and i think thats what kills alot of new fish, once the fish is in the tank ill give them a couple days to adjust and get eating if all looks well or ill start the culpramine right away if they look sick at all, i used to do fresh water dips also but i cant handle the stress and never seen any benefit to doing it, maybe if the fish wasnt going into a qt for some reason i would do a fw dip.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  Evil disease claimed another fish      Just when I thought things might be looking up, my clown tang dies  We made it all day yesterday, this morning and when we first got home from work without a single death. I was hoping and  that no more would die. We went out for a bowling event with Steve's work and when we got home (around 11pm) we found our clown tang dead I guess I wont know for sure who will make it until the QT is done.
