A little bit of both!

Glad to hear!

I am happy to say I haven't seen any ich in my tank since mid March or so either but of course since I did not QT, I am sure its there. Just not seen. And if I don't add any more fish, it stays away.

Will be nice to know you should have an ich free tank!

Well, after 8 long weeks of quarantine the fishies are finally back in their home! Ich Free! (Yeeee Haaa!) :bananapowerslide::Banane44:
I am quite proud of myself for my patience and for the fact I never lost a single fish or coral in the process. I had to drain the tank and remove most of the rock and corals to get the fish out, then transfer them to the QT, treat them with Cupramine, and change water so often I should have bought stock in IO salt. A special THANK YOU to Dave (MrFish55) for the use of his 180 gal. Without a large QT I don't think I would have made it. So here are a few pics of the fish safe and sound back at home and a few new coral additions.

I couldn't get a shot of the Sailfin and LM Blenny, but they are doing fine too.

tank and fish look great

Great work Lance. A truly dedicated aquarist. Hope they all know how lucky they are to have you looking after them :D

A round of applause.....kudos to you for your patience.

Awesome Lance! Great to see when dedication pays off!! :mrgreen:

looking great! But who on earth has a 180 just lying around?! why isn't that bad boy full of water!

And I LOVE the rockwork. Pretty sure I mentioned it before, but those ledges etc will look deadly when everything is grown in. DEADLY.
