Thanks for all of the information guys. These are things I didn't even think to consider. Would you recommend having a sheet of algae available in the tank during the quarantine? I currently have no fish in the DT and plan to leave it that way for at least 72 days, and from here on out will be quarantining everything. I learned the hard way and want to take every step possible to prevent something like this in the future.
76 days :eek:

I agree that the api test kit is difficult to read in the lower copper levels required for treatment with ionic copper such as cupramine. Sorry for your loss!
 

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