Continuing from my previous post about marine velvet, I could not get any new fish simply because I was not sure whether or not the pathogens were still in the water column, even though the two fish that survived the velvet outbreak did not show any signs of ailment after being introduced back into the display tank. I waited for at least six months to ensure that the fish did not become ill again. This is because I read that fish that recover from marine velvet gain temporary immunity for up to six months. There was also another consideration: what if the cause of fish deaths was white spot. All these thoughts and questions prevented me from getting another fish for nearly a year.
A friend of mine broke the deadlock by offering me a kole tang in November 2019, which he quarantined by himself with CP and PraziPro in his quarantine facility.
After observing that the fish remained healthy in my tank, I finally decided to make a move to expand my fish stock.
