Golden Moray and ICH

MaGNuS042 · 02/27/2007, 10:48 PM

Hey Everyone,
What is the proper procedure for a tank that has ich that houses a golden moray?? I know you cannot use copper on these eels, so im wondering if he can be left in the main reef during the treatment of the other fish in a hospital tank. If he does need treatment, will hypo be acceptable??? Thanks in advance....

I was under the impression that scaleless fishes were very resistant to ick. I would leave it in the reef while the others go to the hospital tank if you're worried about exposure to copper.
