IS IT TRUE THAT 80% OF PEOPLE WILL HAVE FISH LOSSES DUE TO DISEASE/PARASITES IN FIRST 8 MONTHS IF DONT QUARANTINE ?

I've had 100% success plop and droppin with 0 fish loss from disease in my fully cured ocean rock system like @Paul B.
My system hasn't had the luxury of being sprinkled with fairy fart dust from haleys Comet last passing. In fact my current system rock has only been cured for a little over 2 years now.

Don’t ŷou think plop n drop is irresponsible?
I actually think is less stress then prolong time in a bag , I done aquarium maintenance for a number of years and always float the bag and then released fish and place in tank.
that when buying from a source you know and trust help also. You know what they keep their salinity.
Some the of the acclimation recommendations it see are crazy to me , way to long.

That's what I do. Ballo was in that bag floating for temp adjustment about 15 mins, That's the Plop.

Quick as possible. Not dip acclimation. No water acclimation. Just temp. That's the Drop.

Plot and Drop.

Who dips any fish in anything in a real stable ocean rock system anyway?
