Wait, you're gonna have 7 fish in a 10 gallon?

since tangs are "thin" fish, he can probably stack 'em side by side and get 7 in a 10 gallon......lol.
i think he meant he plans to have 7 fish total in the dt. he will downgrade from a 20 gal. qt to a 10gal. qt..... not all 7 fish in the 10.

Hallelujah!!! Thanks Tom, sheesh seems to be the new trend on this forum- read to bash any point you possibly can, not to see the point in the post. Wasn't like this in 2009 or 2010.

But you are correct sir I can stack 9 by my measurements, or 8 tangs and 1 Wrasse of small to medium thickness LOL!!!

How about instead of wanting to bash someone you actually READ what they wrote?

NO..............I have a 20 gallon as a qt right now because at the time I needed a 20......Got it?....OK next step.......I will be downgrading----THE SIZE OF MY QT TANK FROM 20 TO 10 GALLONS........OK?.........

In my 65G- my new RSM250(my current tank thread) I will have a total of 7 fish in it, all of which 1 at a time WILL BE QT'd IN THAT 10 GALLON.


Capish?

Not bashing. That's why I asked. LOL. The 65g RSM wasn't mentioned. I just saw downgrading to 10g and 7 fish and red flag popped up. Sorry for my ignorance. I do agree with you about buying fish. Personally I would never buy livestock from Petland every one I've ever been in has at least 1 dead fish in every tank. To the OP sorry for your dilemma and good luck with the treatment.

thank you everyone for your replies to be honest i never qt a fish in the last 11 years and ive bought fish from petland before with no problems but i have learned my lesson it hurt cuz it happened while am upgrading from a 75 to a 125 so now i got no fish just snails and a serpent star fish and lots of corals i plan to add no fish for 45 days should i still feed my corals and light them as usual.how much and how often should i do water changes should i raise my temp i also have alot of chateo will that be a problem how much of my tank water should i add into my new tank

60 days would be better. 45 leaves a chance for it to still be in the system.

Is all good, just it seems to be a bit of a trend that others have been doing on here lately

I've noticed. This is the age of the internet troll.

Ya the reason most tanks get devastated by ich is because of poor water quality or living conditions, stress etc

Which is my point. The ich is not the only problem, merely the last on a list of problems. If the water quality was better and the livestock less stressed would ich even be a problem?
