Uronema is weird. I have had it wipe out damsels and anthias in QT, but other fish families in the same QT be unaffected.

I’ve had uronema wipe out green chromis and avoid other damsels.

I will say that a lot of those pics look like bad infections to me and rarely does uronema impact tangs at all..

Yeah I am hoping the Molly test proves that Uronema does not exist in my tank and the fallow period has eliminated everything else. Adding in new QT practices I hope eliminates and future disasters.

If the mollies look good in 2 weeks I will feel comfortable adding my QT'd fish to it. Will update

Update. Been almost exactly 4 weeks and no outbreaks of anything from the mollies. I am feeling confident that I can add my QT fish to the tank. Any additional thoughts to add @Humblefish ?

If the mollies still look solid black after 4 weeks (no white dots), I'd say you are good to go. ;)
