To some disease you say? First you gotta understand what that its not a disease, it would be a parasite, which my guess from your previous posts was that your fish had the parasite Velvet or Brook. As a reharsh...your fish likly died quickly due to the parasite growing rapidly in such a small tank, and being heavly stocked with fish and water quality problems. Without understanding or knowing what parasite, how can effectively treat it?
Also noting you pleaded ignorance, to not treating the rest of your fish. Noting you had the same problem a few months back, you never treated even though people offered. So you will continue to have this problem. Why would you stress and take out only two fish and leave the rest in your infected tank? Cause when you put your other two back, your efforts were a waste & the fish are likely to become infected again. Not to mention all the stress that your two fish will under go during this move, netting back and forth time.
Your statement.... "If another one dies, I would like to isolate all the fish" What boggles me is you saying your going to wait for another fish to die before actually treat? How many fish have you lost so far? That is until you figure out you have to TREAT ALL the fish, thats if they dont all died before then. Then before leaving the tank fallow for 6weeks fishless you will likely add more fish before that time and go threw this all over again. For now....I cross my fingers for your poor fish. Since I notice you keep buying fish even though your having problems.
I agree with EmilyB above. You need someone with more knowledge in the hobby to treat your fish, giving you time to get your tank under control.
P.S Yellow tang you lost. Your torn fins... are the first sign to bad water quality and or parasite infection.
