Quarantine question?

[fishytime]

^^^ very nicely put! bry&sha....and welcome out from the lurking closet.......I think that certain fish can successfully be treated in a QT tank.....but IME tangs aren't one of them (Unless the QT tank is LARGE)....I've said it here before and I will likely say it again.....I think we grossly underestimate the stress a fish goes through when we try and net it....some fish seem to have a better capacity for handling the lactic acid build up that happens in their muscles,then others......Tangs dont, tangs stress bigtime......and netting them and putting them in small QT when they are already weakened in most cases is a death sentence.......I think if the fish is eating and otherwise acting normal, leave it in the display and start feeding garlic and vitamin soaked foods......if it has stopped eating then try and get it out because its likely on its way out anyway.......FWIW my regal gets a "flare up" every couple months.....

p.s. raising the temp does nothing for marine ick......so save the stress on your corals.....
