My Tank Thread
You'll need to catch ALL fish and run your display tank fallow for 72 days to be sure it's parasite free. My protocol is to treat the entire fallow time with copper and then run through three tank transfers to be extra safe before being placed back in the display tank.
This is because copper levels are difficult to be sure they're perfect, and I would rather be safe than sorry. Especially if you wish to keep very fragile fish like idols.
Buy a seachem ammonia badge so you can tell when you need to make water changes. I had to do 75% water changes daily for awhile (I didn't have any seeded bio media).
