I have 2 Flasher Wrasses getting shipped to me from Divers Den...
  • Yellowfin Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus flavianalis)
  • Blue Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus cyaneus)

My usual QT tank is a 10 gallon, and i have usually QT-ed 1 fish at a time. This time I am trying to QT 2 Flasher Wrasses. How would folks recommend i go about doing it?

Would i need to keep 1 of the wrasses in an acclimation box for the whole duration of QT? Or can both the wrasses be left in QT together without any acclimation box?

Although both are listed as 'Peaceful' on LA, what has you folks expereince been with getting multiple flasher wrasses through QT at the same time?
 
both at same time with no need for the critter cage. Just keep an eye on your ammonia, I've done 3 small fish in a 10g with no problems.

thanks. The QT tank is always running and is cycled, so not too worried about ammonia. But still keep an ammonia badge in there just incase.
