I'm just wondering what would be the suggested Wrasse QT process. I had 2 very healthy looking flashers in my QT but I think the prazipro treatment did them in. Trying to avoid this loss in the future.

Hybrid TTM method. Every Wrasse I had died in copper. You need 2x 10gal tanks. Don't do the BRS method. I just had a coris and Mandarin come out of this method. I've done it 6 times with 100% success rate.

Just read about it on humble fish. It's really only a 2 week process?

@Slocke @OrionN @i cant think

These guy would know for sure how to handle wrasse.
I take them as the Wrasse Gurus... although that doesn't really sound right if you hear it phonetically.
You do know, only 1 of those listed QT?

I've lost far more fish in a medicated QT that was not necessary, then since I stopped doing it for wrasses several years ago.

Yes it is. Check the second post in my tank thread for an outline. I drain all but 5gal of water in the outgoing tank and just add the H2O2 to it. Make sure you leave the heater on and introduce O2 with your powerhead.

Wrasses don't do well with Prazi. I always QT with Coppersafe at 2.5, measured with Hanna checker.
