Hi everybody
I know there are several posts about ich but some just confuse me more than help. I have recently lost 2 fish and after treating my tank it looks like my blue tang is going to be ok. What I need to know is what I should do before adding any new fish....how long should I wait and how to set up a quarantine tank. I have a 30 gallon tank right now so how big of a quarantine tank do I need and what do I do with my live rock. The medicine I used suggested I remove my charcoal filter but leave the biowheel was this the right thing to do and when should the filter go back in. For the record I used Rally by Ruby Reef and Kick Ich by Ruby Reef. These were suggested by my LFS. Also all my levels are what they should be including Salinity.
salinity was what I think may have caused the problem.
Sorry for the long post but I really need the help because my kids are driving me nuts when these fish die. :help:
