I was wondering if I am QT'ing these rummy nose tetras and they are kind of hard to find here, can I get some from two different stores and put all in the QT tank?

I hope to have 6 in my discus tank and some of the others in my other tanks.

Well, the purpose of the QT tank is to keep them away from your current fish... but if one group of rummynose had something, and the other group was clean... you might end up with sick rummynose.

I guess the point is... they won't kill your other fish if they have something, but they might kill each other. Better to lose the rummynose than the discus, I guess.

I did kind of think it would be like you said, Ryan. Could introduce something new into the QT tank. I guess patience is the key here.:o
