how long to leave a tank fallow

Thanks for the responses!

I know that's the right answer..... Just needed a kick in the ars!

Just wanted to agree with the above 8 week minimum. If you have a quarantine system available, you could probably buy a few fish for your Q system in 2 or 3 weeks but don't rush putting them in the display.

Sorry about your loss.

Your QT tank probably has ick unless you used medication.

I am assuming that it does.

I have drained and dried the tank.

Making up some new water for it and starting over.
