One of the number 1 questions I've heard over the years when it comes to quarantine or treating fishes is..."How long can I go before the Ammonia or Nitrites spike?"
That's a great question and obviously depends on tank size, fish load, food, filter, etc.
It would be nice if people can list their findings here in detail. I'll start it off.
15/G tank | Aquaclear 70 & sponge filter| light feeding| 2 Damsels | 1 Med yellow Tang | 2 Clowns| 5 fish total
*Readings after 80hrs*
Ammonia = 0
NO3 = 2
Nitrite = untested due to expired test kit. Sorry
