I’m a bit confused for my first time doing TTM, partly because I couldn’t transfer at exactly the same times exactly 72 hours apart. Can someone tell me if I have this correct-

My fish had ich in the DT so I took them out last Sunday at 1pm.

I transferred them Wednesday at 7:30am

I transferred again Friday at 10pm

My next transfer will be this coming Monday 10pm.

Next transfer will be Thursday at 10pm

Do I have to transfer the fish one more time before it goes into a Qt tank while my display tank is Fallow For 76 days? If so do I have to wait 72 hours from Thursday’s 10pm transfer or can I transfer anytime after Friday at 1pm since I started last Sunday at 1pm?

I understand that 12 days has to pass and that from @Humblefish sticky the first day counts as a full day, but am still not 100% sure and want to check!

1. Transfers need to occur every 72 hours OR less, NOT more
2. The total number of days to pass should be 12 OR more, NOT less
3. A minimum of four transfers is required, with more required if doing transfers more frequent than every 72 hours
4. Time of day of transfers does not matter, provided no more than 72 hours elapse between transfers (ignore what you think you know or have heard about mornings being required)
 
Ok thanks very much! I will probably do a transfer Wednesday night and then the final tr safer to the qt on Friday evening.
