rock from QT to DT

BigJim · 08/07/2009, 11:29 AM

I am taking down my QT tank that I had set up for 3 weeks (fish didn't make it and need the room) and there are 4 good size rocks in it. I want to place the rocks in my sump so that they are cured for the next time I set up a QT.

I've already boiled the rocks and baked them at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes. I want to kill anything that may be on the rocks from the QT so that it doesn't transfer to the DT.

Is it safe to add the rocks to the sump now or is there more I should do to avoid any parasite/disease transfer?
