I know it's not best practice and there is no substitute for an actual quarantine, but given that the majority of people in this hobby do not qt at all, what would be the best method for a 1 week qt before adding a fish to the display tank? I feel like a 1 week, 1 tank qt with no water changes or transfers is a good middle ground between the no qt/1 hour qt products and the multi tank transfer 60 day qt. What mix of medications would you dose and why?
Edit: I'm not advocating that 7 days is sufficient or that anyone should skip an actual quarantine. This was simply a hypothetical question. If your options were 7 days vs NOTHING, what would you do and how would you medicate?
