Sorry for that ugly title, it’s honestly the best I can make to describe my situation.
Backstory: I got marine velvet from adding new tangs to my system without quarantine. I lost over 10 fish already. My tank is 300 gallons and I do a water change once a month with a company that brings clean sea water when the tide comes up.
I never had ich from them, but my tank is fallow right now, and my fish are in treatment in a tub.
My question is, since I had to destroy my rockscape, I’m going to have to drain all my water next month, and redo the rocks—while my tank is fallow. Will doing that bring velvet to my system again? I really don’t want to add my fish after treatment, only for them to get marine velvet again.
I’m treating the fish/ leaving tank fallow for 6 weeks
