Update: Put in the order for the fish minus the 4line wrasse and Naso tang, to my wholesaler, no worries I will eventually get a Naso
 
Are you going to quarantine or just manage the issues? I’ve lost thousands on fish to ich and velvet and flukes... now quarantine everything to have peace of mind.
