No one on that?After you ran Chloroquine and the fishs are ready for transfer, do you run activated carbon again? Do you need to replace the sponge or other Bacteria media? Or just carbon and met the qt run?

Indeed. I find a 40B to really be a perfect QT size.40b is minimum I'd use on a fish that large. A 55 would be ideal.
A 20 could work in an emergency situation but that would be stressful on an 8" fish.

That would depend on the size of the two tangs.How big of a tank would you guys recommend for to juvenile clowns, 1 yellow tang and 1 sailfin tang?

180 gallons minimum.
Edit: oh I thought you meant for the display tank.
Just based on liveaquaria's recommendation, but now I see that's probably not what you were asking.

ok maybe a noob question but what specific products do people recommend for copper? CopperSafe appears to be out of stock in most places
Copper power seems to be the ticket.ok maybe a noob question but what specific products do people recommend for copper? CopperSafe appears to be out of stock in most places
If I'm not using meds that require WCs I usually only do changes between batches. It really just depends on your bioload and water quality IMO.Hi all,
How often do you change water in your QTs? I used to change it every week religiously 20% but I feel that I have been burning a lot of unnecessary water.
I’ve stretched out my current QT with 4 small fish in a 29G qt. Free ammonia appears to be at zero per the ammonia badge and and my nitrates are still pretty low (less than 20). It’s been 3 weeks now without a water change and it’s making me nervous.
I did throw in mature media from my sump when I set it up and copper has been running at 1.83 PPM right now.

I generally only keep fish in copper for 14 days. Then move them to a clean sterile tank. If your water quality is good you could potentially go the full 30 days.Between batches —- so if I’m using copper power you would sometimes go the full 30 days with no WCs?!?
I’m testing water every week and checking my ammonia badge every day. From what I see the levels seem okay ![]()

Can I get some advice on quarantining a group of blue green chromis? My usual protocol is 2 rounds of prazi followed by 30 days in copper.
But I've just read that u shouldn't treat chromis with copper because of the uronema threat. Is this true?
Is so how do I ensure my system stays ich free
Chromis will tolerate copper or CP. CP would be a safe avenue as I covers uronema. If you go the copper route and you are concerned about Uronema it is probably best to use copper + metronidazole.Can I get some advice on quarantining a group of blue green chromis?

Thanks. Should I go ahead and treat with metro even if I don't see any signs of uronemaChromis will tolerate copper or CP. CP would be a safe avenue as I covers uronema. If you go the copper route and you are concerned about Uronema it is probably best to use copper + metronidazole.
Copper and CP are both imunosupressants, so being that copper doesn't cover Uronema adding the metro should be similar to using CP.
