Hello fellow reefers,
yesterday i got 2 small clown fishes and put them in my 5G quarantine tank. It's too early too say anything but they seem to be doing well, just not eating that much.
For the hiding spot, i tossed in a PP elbow inside. One thing that bothers me right now is that the PP elbow had rubber sealing inside it, so i removed it. It had grease where the rubber sealing was, so i washed it with hand soap. I rinsed the elbow a few times, and dipped it in a sink full of water for a few hours, and rinsed it again afterwards before it went into the tank.
I heard any kind of detergent or soap is harmful to fish. Im worried that it will harm them. Should i remove the elbow?
They are my very first fish and i fell in love with them already and i want the best for them.
Thanks guys for helping out a newbie!
