High Ammonia in QT = not good

[saltyrockbox]

wow so its basically impossible to treat a fish with antibiotics. b/c water quality goes way down if there is no biological filtration.

I good chemical ammoina remover might be helpful but I cant think of one and it might in turn make the medication useless.

Seems the best thing would have been to keep it in the main tank and imporve water quality there.

Shoot. I don't think I'll be removing a fish for medication again...

(I was changing the water like crazy and getting all the detritus and old food out ASAP yet ammonia stayed high)
