Hey
I have my fish in QT with copper for ich treatment and the main display fallow. Originally, I added some rock from from my display tank into the quarantine tank since I was going to do hyposalinity, but I decided to do copper so I removed the rock (So the rock has been exposed to ich more recently, whilst the main display has not.) The rock has been dry for about 12 days, and I was wondering if it is safe to add back to the main display without restarting the 76 day fallow time. It may seem like a silly question, but I am worried that the ich parasites can lay dormant outside of water and go back into the main display and require me to restart the fallow period.
Thanks
