Quarantine

With regards to my other post, how long should I quarantine new fish from the lfs for? Thanks guys!

At a minimum two weeks, with four being ideal. If you add fish during the quarantine process, you need to start the clock all over again.

Imo you should quarantine new wild caught fish for a couple of months and tank raised fish for one month. Those times should be measured in terms of consecutive days with no signs of any diseases, parasites or worms. If any fish in the Q tank gets sick, shows symptoms or dies, the time resets to 0 and you should start the Q period anew.

Thanks TwoTank, they'll be from the lfs.
