Quarantine help

[AngGuKueh]

Hi I bought a clown fish and regal angelfish lasst month now inside the quarantine tank and aids with copper and some paraguard from Seachem...the ich doesn't shown up for a week already but yesterday I went to buy one imperior angelfish and also add into this quarantine tank with ich shown

My question is normally the fish I'll treat 2 month than transfer to display tank but this time because I add this imperior angelfish

then the rest of the fish I been quanrantine for a month now can transfer first or need to wait for another 2 month ?

All must quarantine again as they may have ich but not shown yet.

Bro you have to start QT all over again.The ick had spreaded. I would normally finish QT with my current LS before i proceed with a new batch.. no more than 2 LS in the same tank

Thx for info bro another question is I heard that cant quarantine fish in copper treatment for longer time so in my case 3 month times is it ok ?

I been fighting cotton mouth for my regal angel about 3 weeks already any recommended way and treatment for this

Bro I found copper harder to control & it may be a thin fine line if u overdosed... I uses paraguard...

Fyi most LFS hv copper in their holding tank.... U hv to manage it correctly

im using cupramine with no problem only thing is the cotton mouth...the new fish dead.......

IMO 3~4 week inside the QT tank should be sufficient, you should take out your old fish inside your QT tank before releasing the new one into it.

Hey, I do not think it is wise to use both cupramine and paraguard at the same time.

I read it somewhere before, or is it on the bottle labels?

Also, yes, I think about 1 month is good enough if the fish has recovered and feeding well in QT.

Cheers!
