Question

[leonk]

Hey guys quick question I’m quarantining my whole reef in 2 separate tanks and I was just wondering if I need to take the cleaner shrimp out I read that can carry ick on their skeleton? Wanted to know if I should quarantine the shrimp as well?

So you are running two separate qt tanks away from your DT tank?

Running copper

invertebrates are sensitive to copper and may kill them. Definitely will kill snails.

Everything but fish can stay in the DT while it is fallow. Ich can’t survive/reproduce without a fish host.

Bro, I told you three times you don’t need to quarantine inverts.
