I have a 33 gallon qt tank that I've had running since my display tank got infected with ich about 10 months ago. What a pain! I will always quarantine fish from now on. I left my 90g DT fallow for three months ( had to set a trap to catch the fiish) and did the tank transfer method for all the fish for 2 weeks. Then set up a quarantine tank. The tank transfer was easy just a lot of hassle. It worked perfect my fish are now disease free and have been in the DT for 6 months with no issues. Never thought of doing tank transfer for new fish but I guess it makes sense.
I have a question? How long do you suggest leaving new fish in a QT tank?
