    Thanks Kacy! :)

    Thank you.

    Thanks; you're very welcome.

    Correct. I only acquire fish via 4 sources; each of them has their own QT and treatment system/regiment.
    Sure, that's not foolproof, but neither is QT'ing at your own home.

    I let her out last night, as she was doing really well and none of the tankmates were acting aggressively towards her.

    The Eightline came over for a few looks and a couple quick flashes, but then mostly left her alone after that. Most everyone else hardly noticed her. The male Timor did a flash and a quick nip when she got close to him, but that's normal for that guy. He calms down pretty quickly.

    She stayed out the remainder of the evening and had no qualms about jumping into the frenzy when it came feeding time. :)

    Needless to say, she made me a happy aquarist last night. It's funny how nervous and expensive fish makes you, especially when they're far more expensive than you're used to. :D
