    I was thinking about that. Actually found a 50g long with stand sump protein skimmer return pump and heater fairly cheap that I probably will be picking up tonight. I'm going to stop on lunch and get the medication. Hopefully by tonight I can dip the fish and get them in qt. Wish me luck fellas.

    That is a good deal !
    Are you going to dip and treat or just dip and see how that goes?

    How are you gonna catch your fish? My biggest fear in my 300gal is getting the fish out if I ever have this problem.. Luckily when a few of my fish caught brooklynella they were in my 75gal and it wasn't too bad catching them. Good luck, I'm sending you good karma that all goes well.

    im planning on dip and treat in the qt tank. might have to dip a few times but either way they will be in the qt for a while.

    my 210 rockwork is pretty open and minimalistic so It will be a little tough but a lot easier than if I had rockwork wall to wall.

    thanks all for the good vibes, im hoping I can save these guys! ill keep you all updated.
    if I cant get the qt running tonight ill at least give them a dip but they will be in the qt by tomorrow at the latest im hoping.
