[Minimum setup for 10 gallon Quarantine tank Recommendations]

@Garren B Thank you, so during the quarantine if a fish shows disease symptoms or passes away even though it arrived alive , does it indicate some inherent issue with the fish?

[Quarentine meds trio question]

@Fishmonger_X so before applying meds, its ok to apply water conditioner right ?

[Newbie - Guideline for applying Quarentine meds trio]

@Fishmonger_X Thanks for your great guidance. unfortunately i bought them online , learned some hard newbie lesson. i didnt ask the seller whether it came from salt water. few came from aquahuna and few from other online store. i want to save what i have and be careful going forward.

 

can you point to some videos?

[Newbie - Guideline for applying Quarentine meds trio]

@Fishmonger_X my male guppies started showing fin rot  and few died and couple of female guppies started having fungus white color in their face. i remove those put in the bucket

i recently bought these and dropped them in to my tank without any quarentine. i want to take preventive action before other fieshes die.

all the fishes are bought in a week. pretty new

[Quarentine meds trio question]

@Fishmonger_X Thanks for the reply. so before applying medication, do a 50% water change, remove all filter pads and i usually put water conditioner and easy all green fertilizer. so until the medication is complete, don't apply water conditioner and fertilizer as well ?

is it right?

[Quarentine meds trio question]

@Fishmonger_X @Cory i have ordered the trio medication pack and expecting to be delivered this week, before applying trio medication do we need to remove all the media pads like ammonia, nitrite , phosphate, coarse sponge pad from hang on back filter? and not apply any fertilizers or fritz ultimate or any water conditioners

i am going to try this first time, any recommendations and advice
