Hello All. My very first post on R2R so thanks for having me! I have a pair of Watanabei Angelfish on order and should arrive in the next 4 weeks.
My new fish QT method I have used with past success is first to temperature/tank acclimate, then a 5-minute freshwater dip with matching PH RODI water heated and aerated. I then transfer to a tank water bucket containing part A of Blue Life Aquatics Safety Stop which is Formalin for 40-45 mins. Then the fish are transferred to tank water bucket part B which is Methylene Blue for 40-45 mins. All (3) buckets of water are aerated and heated. Fish then go to QT tank for 6-week observation. I typically dose Cupramine to .5 mg/L and PraziPro per instructions. I also feed pellets with Metroplex, Focus, and Selcon.
My questions is: will the Watanabei Angelfish be tolerant of the above treatments, or should I revise them?
