Qt should be bb with some pvc pieces.

The qt period should be min 8-10 weeks.

I would go closer to 80 days.



A bummer, but I would recommend not getting any new fish for a while and getting everything square first, sorry. gl

How would the reef tank be infected? I’m not going to get any new fish until January 1st.

What steps do you recommend while quarantining? I’m still researching the quarantine process.

Did you move corals and fish back and forth, between the tanks?

Are you sure it is ich?

I moved some corals back into the reef tank before I got the MI. I never put a fish from the FOWLR into the Reef. I’m not 100% sure it was ich, but I’m fairly sure it was.

Since I have a cleaner wrasse that I'm going to QT, I was reading that wrasses don't do well with copper. Should I just do a 3-5 min fresh water dip, then run him in hyposalinity for 4 weeks then do prazi pro?
