Always going to be there, apparently. Only way to get rid of it is to leave the tank empty for some amount of time, then QT and treat all incoming livestock.

I am thinking of starting a quarantine tank. I plan one adding, if possible, only two more fishes but not any time soon. Depending on the scenario, I might even have to go through leaving the tank fishless for 2 months. That would be the hardest part just to keep few fishes since I am limited to a 20 gallon tank.

I bought the wrasse because my tank had very little movement.

I did plan on getting a cherub but they were nowhere to be found in calgary.

BTW I didn't under "this is kinda the opposite of what you said about not wanting to throw the money for a qt....if you believed there was more to it then money you would in fact have no prob ponying up the doh for it???"

what i kinda meant was that you spent easily $500 in coral and fish but when it came time to throw for qt you said money is an issue??

no offense and its a common mistake people make
