Well I don't know if I did the right thing but I put her back in the main tank today. She was not responding to anything feeding wise, wouldn't eat at all, is it possible that the food tastes like crap with all the medicine in the water?
Anyway her treatment was cut very short to say the least but I think she wouldn't of made in the qt for much longer. She was throwing herself into the glass and had a terified look in her eyes, maybe my imagination but it did look that way. To sum it up she had 5 days of cupramine at 0.5, then I ran charcoal 24 hours, checked for copper, none left, added nifurpirinol for 24 hours and then decided she had had enough. She looks really good today, all signs of any ick and infection is gone except now (probably from not eating) she seems to be developing HLLE. She ate like a pig all day, she can't seem to get enough. Hopefully it will take care of HLLE...

Just to let everyone know, she is still doing great and eating like a PIG! I did lose 2 fish in this whole ordeal and I was having trouble talkig about it. It really upset me to see them die, it was a horrible thing to watch. I'm down to 3 fish now and will add 1 more a month but I'll be more vigilant about chosing and 'quarantining' from now on.

He couldn't be saved, being out of water for so short a time? That must of been awful, sorry about your loss too. You wouldn't think a little fish could make such a difference but they do....
