Hi, im getting a pair of wantanabei angels in today and I was going to use @HotRocks and @Humblefish 's quarantine procedure. I want to make sure copper, prazipro and all the other medications are ok for angels. Im also quarantining a wrasse and a watchman goby along with them. Are all these fish ok to quarantine together and are the medications ok for them?
 
Watanabeis are deep water species and as long as they were properly caught should do fine following @HotRocks QT protocol.

I would give them a couple days in an unmedicated tank to ensure no swim bladder issues and eating.

Angels need well oxygenated water so ensure good flow in your QT.

thanks! I dont have a spare powerhead and I just have a HOB filter. would an air bubbler do any good for oxygen?

YW! And yes I would use whatever you can including a bubbler. Good luck and post pics! Beautiful fish
 
i would add small powerhead. you can buy used one on craiglist often cheap
 
my qt is only 10 gallons... i would point it to surface(for example: prazi depletes oxygen)
if i remember correct i have some sort of jebao powerhead on it. works great!
