Tank Transfer

[TiamaRIA84]

Hi, i previously had problems with my clown loache fish white spot and loss in weight i have been giving spot treatment for 3 days but the spots dont seem 2 have cleared, the next problem i had was my goldfish in the tank with the tropical thats sorted iv found him a new home
The next problem was my tank was way to small so i went and bought a 100 liter and set it up 2 days ago, now im just wondering because the clown fish are still poorly not to transfer over yet? Will my other fish be ok to transfer over or is it possible the other fish will carry the disease across to the new tank?
The other fish i have is 1 pelco sucker, 2 slender rainbows and 3 molly's
Can anyone help please?

It is possible they will carry the disease over to the new tank. In my opinion it's best to wait until the disease is totally under control before introducing the fish to a new tank.

Thing is the tank there in rite now is only a 40ltr i think this is why they are getting stressed and ill, i didnt no till yesterday the tank was way to small.
To be honest i dont think the clown loache are going to make it, one is very skinny and ill hiding behind the rocks the other is just spotty and loopy!!

Well, you can use filter material from the existing tank to quick cycle the new one and transfer them but you do risk transfering the ich. What are you feeding the loaches? Sometimes if you find a food they really like it can encourage them to eat but sometimes when they are sick and weak they won't.

I feed them catfish pellets what would you advise feeding them?
