I am trying to gather supplies for my quarantine tank. In the picture, you can see that I have a 20gal tank, a 90w heater, and an air pump.
I am purchasing today
a copper Hanna tester w/regents
A sponge filter
Ruby Reef Rally
Ruby Reef Kick-ICH
Copper Power (Endich)
Lots of glass marble for added surface area (suggestion from Dr. Tim in his MACNA lecture on YouTube)
I am today starting the cycle of my tank with Dr.Tims one & only and MicroBater7 and I am hoping that as I cycle the tank I can place the sponge in my sump since it will be copper-free to seed sponge with bacteria when the tank is ready for the first fish and it will help with the quarantine.
I am planning on a clownfish pair for the first two fish, once in the tank I am going to go through a lengthy period of refuge kick start to my copepod/amphipod population and then I will slowly add via quarantine my unitarian fish aka tangs, followed by slowly adding some gobies and wrasses. That is if my lid from Clearview lids is ready hard to say do to this covid-19.
My question for this post is the medications and planning good for the clownfish? I might have to switch to a ttm method and more supplies for tangs but I have lots of time before I am needing supplies to successfully do that. I just wanted to include long term goals for best answers. Should I be ordering different medications to have on hand and ready if needed?
