Chaeto from a tank that has been running fallow

Plauri55 · Apr 28, 2019

About 6 weeks ago I had to remove my fish from my 75 gallon DT. They have been through their 30 days of copper and are doing great in their hospital tanks. Maybe just a bit bored. The DT fallow period ends on Memorial Day.

My question is this:. The Chaeto in the DT's refugium is growing very well. Will it be safe to use this Chaeto in my other tanks refugium? After the 76 days, no Ich, correct?

After the 76 days, it should be fine. If you want to be extra safe, maybe wait a few weeks after you've added the fish back in to be sure the fallow period was successful.
