IMO after all is said and done this happens to alot of discus keepers, being fooled by clean discus being offered on the web. I'd really like to find out what overseas breeders are the worst for selling discus with all the parasites being discussed. In my personal QT peroid I also use a guinea pig and the same procedures as so many of you all. My advice is always use reputable sellers of discus many you can find on this forum, BUT WOULDN'T IT BE NICE TO NOT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE HASSEL. IMO ONLY Jim
What size tanks do yall use for QT?
-Matt
I like a 40g breeder for QT. I then use it as the grow out until I need to upgrade--then they go into a 75g.
Harriett
I use either a 50 gal./55 gal. depends on how many are in the shipment/size of fish.
Ed,
Thanks. The one to one ratio referred to garlic to Bh mix, or whatever you feed. Jack Wattley gave that ratio at a talk he gave that I attended.
