xaine Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Would be best to have it in a separate quarantine tank, as it can be spread to your other tankmates. What do you have in your tank ? If it's a FOWLR tank, you could induce treatment directly to the tank itself.

Strictly no medication into main tank no matter how safe manufacturer claims..don't forget there are live rocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kakani Posted April 1, 2012 Author Share Posted April 1, 2012 I am using NSW so i did not cycle my tank. Want to catch the fish to isolate also hard. Keep hiding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member KELVINx3 Posted April 1, 2012 SRC Member Share Posted April 1, 2012 by right you're suppose to cycle it before adding live stock. no matter NSW or salt mix you need beneficial bacteria in marine setup. they need time to make love and grow also. best is to let it cycle, else you'll be killing live stocks for the process of the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member starfish123 Posted April 1, 2012 SRC Member Share Posted April 1, 2012 agree with Kelvin. although NSW already have some BB, the amt of it is not enough and you still hv to cycle yr tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
