could this be something other than ich? - Frag Outpost Forums - Coral Propagation and Reef Aquarium Forums

I have a clown that's been in a QT with copper ( Cupramine 0.5mg/l) for a week now with just one spot just tucked under his gill. The pic attached is just for reference to show where the spot is but the size of the dot and the placement is right.
It hasn't changed at all so could this be something else and not ich? He had it for a few days in the DT and when I saw it didn't go away, I moved him to QT with copper. Still no change, is it too soon to be worrying?

It could very well be to see. Keep giving the treament to him. He needs to be out of the tank for at least 6 weeks. That way it gives the ick in your main tank time to die off.

I guess you don't need me to post an answer. Teeka has it all under control.
