So I got a new mickey mouse platy and I want to add it to my redwag platy aquarium.
> That's all right, yes? They are platy after all, so the type shouldn't matter yeah?
I had to get one in an emergency for an event, so I bought it from a nearby store. The living conditions of the fish there were dreadful. So I didn't add it to the aquarium yet and quarantined it. I treated the water with anti-chlorine and methylene blue.
> Should I treat the water with Malachite green? I didn't see any white spots though or any other illness. Is it recommended that I treat it with Malachite green just to be on the safe side?
> A fish shop-keeper told to treat the aquarium water with methylene blue every week. Is that recommended?
Thank you in advance!
