    Online QT and is it good?

    Build Thread Attempting fully disease free tank. Completely quarantined and medicated everything.

    I’m starting a 90 gal mixed tank which I have decided to practice full eradication instead of the management techniques. I’ve run tanks in the past using the dump and pray method and while I generally got lucky I want the peace of mind this time. The tank is a 90gal I got off Facebook...

    Adding fish to quarantine

    I’m currently quarantining all of my fish and figured while I have the QT up and running it would be a good time to add a new fish. My LFS offered me a great deal on a Yellow Tang, he’s had them in the shop now for over a month, they’re all just under 2 inches, great color and eat well. My QT...

    Tang with discoloration near pectoral fin

    I had this tang in QT for about two months. I am new to the QT portion of the hobby. I was lucky enough to go 4 years with adding fish straight to main tank and nothing happened until luck ran out.
