HELP! I have a quarantine setup and all of my fish (3 anthias and a small atlantic blue tang) have been doing fine until just a few minutes ago. I was testing the copper levels (only at .25) when all of a sudden the tang was swimming very rapidly around the tank. When he stopped he was laying on the bottom not breathing, then slowly started to move again. His breathing was very fast and he started swimming around looking very odd. Next thing I know he's wedging himself under some "rock".

I tested the water and I found that the Nitrite levels were up, and so was Nitrate but not that much. The QT has been up and running for a while actually and before the fish went in there wasn't any nitrate or nitrite.

I need to get the nitrite down asap, which is why I'm asking if anyone has anything like Seachem's Prime to get rid of nitrite.

My cell phone number is (210) 739-3032
