Hi Ben would you keep a copperband in your tank with sps corals. I have read a lot of conflicting info about them being sps coral pickers and fussy eaters!!

Copperband top tip

Quarantine for three weeks and use flubenol 15 (ie kususri koi/ discus wormer) in two doses one on day one and one on day seven. this will get rid of pretty much all internal parasites. allow the fish the other two weeks to express any othe diseases.

All the while keep oxygen levels to maximum with lots of water movement and keep water within acceptable parameters

* these fish hate copper, avoid at all costs. If they get W/S use myxazin or something marine and formaldehyde based unless its chronic
