I avoid meds for myself and my family and do the same for my fish. As far as I am concerned the least med and chemicals, the better. Less stress for fish. So far I have been lucky and never got to regret it. Fish gets so stressed by all the changes, they need a stable place to settle down, not another temp place.@motortrendz We feed a wide variety of foods including probiotic as well.
I see this old thread popped up. With the disease issues in the supply chain, and the poor quality overall of fish available to home aquarists, a comprehensive quarantine is a must. You can do it yourself, or buy pre-quarantined, but I prefer to handle it myself. Here is our current protocol:
Current Quarantine Protocol
2023 Quarantine Procedures Jay Hemdal David Scarborough Protozoans (Cryptocaryon/ich, Amyloodinium/velvet) and Metazoan trematodes/flukes are by far the most common parasites found on newly acquired fish. A carefully managed quarantine process can effectively eliminate these parasites before...www.reef2reef.com
The only time I don't quarantine is if the DT can be treated for disease after-the-fact and if the DT does not contain high value fish.

I would have thought more folks would move over to the TTM. Isn't that much less stress on their fish? (No copper needed)
Jay, this week I went to the Riverhead aquarium. I didn't see Joe but they recently emptied their huge coral tank and removed all the fish and corals for "maintenance".
One of the workers told me a coral exuded some toxin so they had to do this. I never heard of that but it sounds like a lot of work for that.
