Yikes, this escalated quickly. I get that it's easy to take things the wrong way by reading words on a screen as opposed to face to face discussion but i don't think anybody meant to offend you OP. In this hobby, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. As soon as I read that you put your new fish into your tank without QT and now they're dying, the easiest answer is often the correct one. I immediately thought that they probably have some sort of parasite and should have been QT or at the very least, dipped. Sure, some people don't QT and have great results. I used to be that guy until I had an ich outbreak. Never again. OP, you should stick around. It's a public forum. People can say whatever they want. Just ignore them if you don't like what they say.
