lion needs help
 
After being treated in qt tank for ick,my lionfish seems to be depresed,fins foldedback,stuck in the corner,just no looking his usual self :sad:
I know lions are sometimes effected by copper based meds(used seacure,byaquarium systems).He's eating like normal,breathing is normal.
All outer appearances seem fine.What can/should i do for him?

He was in the same tank as my rabbit who showed signs,so he was treated as a precaution.Was always on the understanding that lions very seldom were effected by ick because they are capable of shedding the slime coat,I could be wrong though.

Have you checked alkalinity levels in your tanks?
