Ich in tangs

I read that too, but you could quite likely lose a handful of fish from your display in that time whilst you are waiting.

I would sooner do what I did, albeit a pain in the arse to do so and give the little fellas a fighting chance by doing hypo and leave tank fallow for the ten weeks that I am doing.

What about increased stress from netting, being moved, put in a smaller tank, and having the water params rapidly changed? If the fish are already sick, this can't help much.

Ps, not in any way trying to discredit hypo, just some things I've been wondering about

Some would argue that you could also lose a handful of fish from your QT'ing procedure. The various QT'ing procedures can be quite taxing on fish.

Honestly, I don't think there is a right or wrong answer to this one. There are tonnes of people on both sides of this fence. If you feel QT'ing will help go for it. If you don't believe it will, don't do it. Fish have died on both sides of this fence.
