I’ve done a fishless cycle for a 20H that is almost complete. I plan to follow your quarantine trio in a separate bare bottom tank. My question is this quarantine tank will not be cycled and it’s not something I can leave set up all the time. is using a sponge filter from another tank enough to provide beneficial bacteria in this one week short term without losing fish? I’m needing toga every my Q tank set up only for the quarantine period. Is this feasible?

When medicating do you turn off the filter?

@rudywatkins1312 3 жыл бұрын

@ Kyle Vick. You always leave the filter running, but you ALWAYS take out carbon or chemipure or similar product from filter because it will REMOVE the medication from the water. After treatment do water change like Cory said & replace new carbon to pull rest of med out of water. 🙂

Y’all’s videos have been so helpful! Hobby aquarium keeper (freshwater 29 gallon) here with a thriving tank of mollies, shrimp, tetras, plecos, and even a frog that lasted 2+ years and a move. Over the last couple months I’ve lost everything but my 2 plecos and some live plants, so I decided to get serious. These videos have helped so much, set up two 10 gallon quarantine tanks (1 for fish, 1 for plants) today and I’m on my way to rebuilding my main tank to what it once was!

Sucks. I know. It is a very demanding hobby, so if you're not someone who can basically be endlessly entertained by just sitting and watching a healthy tank, then it may not be for you. I would argue that understanding all the moving parts, the complicated variables, and things that need to be balanced is part of the fun. The responsibility that is required for someone to keep what is basically a water box of nature in their home can be really rewarding in and of itself. Still, there's no getting around the cost aspect. Fish keeping can get expensive really easily, and start up costs alone are high. But the more you invest early on, the less you may have to later. I'm relatively new to the hobby too. I can totally relate to your sentiment. Good luck!

The disease (body fungus) didn’t go away after two days and I was so confused on what to do, since I thought everything would be better after dosing all three at once! But thankfully I re-dosed again and they did get better after that 😅 Anyway great product and would 10/10 buy again!

I have watched this now multiple times....just to make sure I don't forget something. I was worried about the meds harming the plants.....so I watched this today and it reminded me it was snail safe, plant safe and fish safe....to do all three at same time. I bought 8 panda corys last Saturday......they look and act totally fine, so I treated today. Hard part is not feeding them for 4 days, but I have had too many other fish get sick and die after 7-10 months....so it is probably parasites. Lesson learned, I am treating as preventative.

For the QZ aquarium, what i do is have a large, 30liter food safe plastic tub that if i need to isolate new fish or treat a fish separately from the main tank I can fill it up and add one of the sponge filters from one of the main tanks and a spare heater i have on hand and that way i can isolate fish without having the work of maintaining a whole other tank (the bb would need s supply of food) that I might only use a couple times a year.
