Re-introducing Shrimp After White Spot Treatment

[pixelpefekt]

When my fish caught white spot, I removed my amano shrimp before starting treatment.

I completed the last of my white spot treatment just over a week ago. After treatment, I changed about 70% of the water and added the charcoal media to my power filter. It's been a week and I've made another water change of about 35%. When can I add my shrimp back to the main tank?

I think you should be ok, is the black carbon sponge in the filter?

Yep. The carbon sponge is sandwiched in between the two regular filter sponges at the moment. How long do I leave it in?

anyone?

is a week enough for the carbon?

carbon acts very fast a week should be enough i would have thought, if you are worried replace the carbon with some fresh and wait another 1 or 2 days.
