I wouldnt either. Good luck. We have one for about 2 yrs, he's my fave! :joy:

I put my tangs through hypo while I QT them. It doesn't hurt them and gives you a higher guarantee that they will be fine when you put them in the main tank. Other than having to wait a while longer to add it to the main tank, I don't see any cons, only pros.

Basically, here is the question:
Did you do a complete hypo on ALL your other fish? Cause if you didn't, then there is little point in doing it on the powder blue. There is ick in the tank.
If you did, then I absolutely would.
If the fish is eating well and seems well adjusted after several days, that is also a consideration.

yes i have done hypo on all of my other fish, i just hate to stress out the tang anymore than nessessary.
