Wrasses: medication sensitivity

Wrasses don't like copper/cupramine; and apparently don't like prazi. Just a heads-up.

This is definitely something that I didn't know. Thank you for taking the time to share this information.

I won’t deny it’s true but I treated my twin spot with cupramine and it didn’t skip a beat. The other fish you could tell didn’t like it but the wrasse was totally fine. If it’s the only way to treat a sick fish I would do it again and just start slow
