We 100% QT everything, but we don't prophlatically treat for Ich. That bit us on the booty recently because when I added 2 fuzzy lions into a 100g...
I think maybe some people assume if they just quarantine (and don't treat), that their fish are Ich free. If you don't treat for Ich while your...
Ya, that sucker gives off a lot of heat. You must have better roads than we do. We could hear the innards bouncing some when we moved.
What part of QTing will ensure your fish is Ich free? Only if you prophetically treat for Ich, can you assume your fish is Ich free. You HOPE if the...
Chillers don't actually travel that well sometimes. It may have worked when you tested it, doesn't mean it worked when he set it up. Just sayin........

Most people don't consider lions and scorps a big carpet surfing risk. I have a wall of shame that speaks otherwise. Lions and scorps by their very...
Ya, but all that debris is still in your tank, it's just settled waiting to be disturbed. Either way it won't hurt your tank, but the dust is...
I rinse. Don't like the mess in my tank if I don't. Your above method will work. I find a low thread count pillow case also works well. I don't...
