I retract most.... I will buy fish that have not been in QT... but not until I personally have a functioning QT tank.

I have been there... and it is horrible. Hope things are going better for you.

I added a new Melanarus recently and am keeping my fingers crossed it is healthy. And I know better. The temptation ugh!

The yellow tang just died.

Officially the firefish has shown up dead. Second clown unseen.


Now I have a neon goby and my mandarin.

I'm seriously freaking choked. I saw spots on the flasher in the store. Was assured nothing looked out of the ordinary.

Well I am pretty sure it wiped out my fish. Confidence and trust gone.

Sorry, but you just can't have confidence or trust of anyone that tries to tell you a fish is fine. It just came out of the ocean days ago. This is exactly what I did and lost 12 fish. i will NOT add another fish to my tank that has not, at a minimum, gone into QT for observation for 6 weeks. Any sign of anything, it gets medicated. Tough way to learn the lesson, I really hate seeing these threads when so much has been posted just like it in the past.
Hopefully you develop a plan and rebuild. Crappy, I know..

Even in the net the neon wants to clean the tang. You can see the white patch under the neon.
