Hi everyone, im planning to do a QT and a fallow on my DT. Just wanna ask what to do with my DT when going fishless. should i just feed it daily?

Some people lightly "ghost feed" their fallow tank. It can't hurt, but isn't always needed. If your DT has been established for a long time, the beneficial bacteria are all there and when you remove the fish, they just sort of "hibernate" until you return the fish. If the DT was newly set up, then ghost feeding would be more important to do.

it was an established tank but i recently upgraded to bigger one., filters, livestocks just moved to a bigger one. sump still the same. just the tank i changed. but still im treating it as a newly setup. sadly a mandarin i got became a carrier i guess cause its the only one i added recently.
