		Hey all just almost done battling a nasty ich out break in my tank. The whole 9 yards netting all the fish QT, hypo... all the good stuff.... Only 5 fish made it out of the ich/treatment ordeal out of 15. and now after 8 isn weeks they are ready to go back into the main  
 
Ich fooled me once and now I'm on the fool me twice shame on me part  
 
 
So onto the Question  
 
Im Planning on setting up a more permeant Qt tank to restock the main tank. I got a 30 gallon or 55gallon that ill be setting up and cycling and got a few months to figure out everything (Thailand for holidays for all of march Booyeah)  
 
What do you guys do for QT? 
Do you prophylactically do hypo or copper ? Or watch and see ?I'm not one to bomb copper/hypo on healthy fish if not needed  
How long do you Qt new fish before adding ? 
How many fish would be ok at a time say in the 30g? 
 
 
Thanks 
Craig Dillman
