if use copper treatment does tat mean all my shrimp,snail n suncoral,candy cane and some zoa can take the treatment?

[JeffL]

I think this is the Brooklynella Diagnosis. Do you have a quarantine tank? The last time my clown had this, I gave them medication which helped but most corals and inverts can't take it....

[les71]

No choice you need to copper take all your fish out to copper. I know how you feel as I got this in my tank before. And lose alot of fish too.

[iskay]

Look like Brook to me.

[les71]

Wat is brook?

[I love angel]

If you cannot take out the fish to do copper treatment, try to get a UV. This will help to slow down the spread.

[les71]

Ok, I juz read a article of brook and yes very similar to my situation,so if I juz let it die off and leave it for a month, the parasites will juz die off?, cos it need a host.ritz?

[les71]

Wat type of uv us effective and u could recommend and wat is the damage?

[les71]

Anybody know where got sell formalin-mshttp://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000O3EI2Y/ref=mw_dp_img?is=l

[lcf425]

get interpet 7 you can get it from fresh water shop .

[Sengreef]

Yes interpet7 very effective against brook even just bath the fish in a pail for 24hrs all brook gone and fish back to normal condition start feeding back but kenot put back to the same tank cause brook will come back after 2~3days so u still need a QT ... Formalin not easy to use me have no success with formalin ... brook not oni happen to clown fish but oso will spread to angel and tang ...

[les71]

QT for how long than it is safe to put back into display tank? Will brook harm invertebrates? If there is no fish in tank ,how long will brook survive?

[stevenchia]

If you discover ur fish at early stage it will be easy to cure them. Normally i use a freshwater bath at 5 mins n use a qt tank.

[les71]

I use interpet7 n I dose into main tank, so far so gd,I took out all my coral n snail except three shrimp, two skunk n a fire shrimp, and they are doing juz fine for now...

[les71]

Interpet7 is gd, my shrimp n starfish is ok, n so is my fish, they stop dying but I m left with four fishes.

[Keith khoo]

where to buy interpet7?

[hammy]

U might wanna consider QT your fishes in the future. Because as long as one get into your tank, it will affect everyone

[les71]
