Here are both clowns in the qt i threw together. Theyre in 5g of the main tanks water. Gave a 1/2 dose of furan-2 since directions said one dose per 10g.
Both clowns have been eating and swimming just fine no signs of distress that i can tell so far.
Any pointers on the qt? This is the first time ive used one and had to medicate a fish.

My tip would be to take a marker of some sort, or a piece of tape to mark the water level. This way you can clearly see when you need to top off and how much. Keeping this stable will help reduce stress during this. Also, get an ammonia alert badge and put it in there so you can react quickly to any ammonia that arises.

My clowns seem to have had some kind of bacterial thing as it is gone as of now. Gonna keep them in the qt for one more week just to be sure ots gone for good.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
