Qt

[GreenSpottedPuffer]

I know there is another thread going like this but I just wanted to remind everyone that not QTing is not a good idea...Im sooooo frustrated right now and my poor fish are now dealing with my bad judgment.

Make sure you QT...I made the very stupid mistake last week of adding a fish without QT because I bought it from a friend who has had it in his tank for almost a year and claimed his tank is ich free...Well my fish all have ich now and I will have to take them all out of the tank and QT all of them! Im talking about many big fish. So I have to buy several rubbermaids to QT them in and deal with water changes and water quality in all of those rubbermaids for 6-8 weeks now

My point is that if I had just QT'd like I usually do, I would have one small fish in a 10G QT right now for 6-8 weeks...instead I will have many unhappy fish in QT who don't feel very good. This really sucks and I hope people remember to QT and do things right. If not for your sake, for the sake of your fish. I feel so bad for what I am now putting my Puffers through because I figured "well he was in someones tank and looks healthy enough...may as well just get him right in the display"...SOOOO stupid
