These two have been inseparable from day one. Best fins for life.
Performed a five minute freshwater dip followed by an hour long Formalin bath for both fish, one after the other. Placed them in my 20G QT tank that was set up on the fly and dosed with Coppersafe.
QT specs:
-Small Fluval powerhead creating plenty of surface agitation
-2" and 3" PVC plumbing tees
-Aquatop flow sponge with 20G Tetra air pump
-"Sacrificial LR" from DT as I didn't have time to cycle a QT
-I also added a bottle of Fritz to help add in breakdown of toxic chemicals
Both fish seem to be doing well so far, a few goes into QT time.
I now fully understand the importance of observation time for new members of the tank, and will never make an addition to my DT without having done so first. This has been a nightmare but you love and you learn. Still have six more fish to transfer to QT after these guys get moved to my 45 I'll be setting up as a more temporary dwelling during the fallow period.
