another boring newbie question < ick >

[jimbo222]

I read somewhere that inverts can carry ick// is this true?

Also can corals carry ick? or is it just the water that comes from the lfs

Do you have to quarantine everything?

Technically, if you are planning on a completely pest free tank then everything "wet" should be quarantined.
I have only ever quarantined my fish and my achilles tang never gets ich so It's kind of up to you...just don't be surprised if ich ends up in your tank if you don't quarantine everything

*edit* to answer your question, yes it is possible ich could come in on inverts, corals, live rock ect
