How long do you quarantine them for?
When do you quarantine them? When they get the very first spot of ick, cuz most fish get over most ick?
I read the disease part of this forum, but it don't really list medication by name. What is the best medication for the different diseases in US, UK, AUS, etc?
Anyone's input would be very much appreciated.
 
I usually quarantine fish with diseases for about 1 month. If they are just injured i quarantine them until 1 week after the injury heals. Those are just my durations and not from any rules etc. I just feel comfortable with these time frames.
I dont quarantine for ich i treat the whole tank as once it starts it is in the water not just on the fish. :)
 
i agree what he said about the ich thing, since it's contagoius you might as well treat the whole tank..speaking of which, is finrot contigous? :/
 
Thanks for the replies every1. Finrot comes from a bacteria found in the water anyways. It just attacks week fish. Is it transmittable, probably, if the fish is weak. How about external parasites?
