Hello,
I have a 470 gallon FOWLR tank. Yesterday I notice that all of my fish were heavily encrusted with ich. I immediately dosed with Cupramine and turned off the uv. Unfortunately most of my fish were dead by this morning. I removed the surviving 2 and now the tank is empty. My question is how long should I let it sit empty? I tested the parameters and everything was within normal limits. No excess nitrates or ammonia. Oh was at 8.2 and sal at 1.025. I don't know what the stressor was that caused the tank to wipe out like that. TIA
