Dead quarantine

I just aquired 3 trochus snails. Should i quarantine them? And what medication would you use to quarantine?

Parasite tomonts are capable of encysting upon the shell of a snail. Only thing you can do is isolate said snail in a fishless environment (like a frag tank) for 76 days.

Oh wow. Can i quarantine anything else with them?
 
I found today in QT some spots on the longnose butterfly and small tail rot on the chromis. Cannot tell if its lympho or ich. Chloroquine in QT was kept at 10mg/l. What do you think is the problem?

could the long nose have Lymph? Does it look kinda like cauliflower and is it on a fin? It starts off looking like ick but gets bigger instead of falling off. I've found that butterflies are especially prone to Lymph.

How do you measure chloroquine concentration?
 
I'm not sure what test you would need to measure it, but I know they don't sell them on amazon. Humble will have to get with you on that.

Those bumps though, dont look like ick, velvet or lymph. It's almost like a pimple that hasn't come to a head yet. I can't tell from the picture, but does it look like there is a clear coating over the bump? i'm thinking of flukes and wondering if they have been treated for that yet, though I'm pretty doubtful that they are flukes. I guess we will just have to wait for humble on this one too.
 
I mean, that could be ich... it does appear to be under the skin. But something also doesn't look quite right about it. Can you post a closeup pic of the affected area?
