Tank Disease

[Carpenter Wayne]

Hello Everyone,
I'm looking for an alternate cure to eradicate brooklynella from my tank. Everything I've read is to take all fish out of the tank for "X" amount of days. In order for brooklynella to run out it's life cycle. The brooklynella entered my tank after introducing clownfish. As of right now I don't have an option to pull out the remaining fish. Lost a total of 39 fish with this outbreak of brooklynella with the last fish dying on January 8th of this year. I know my water parameters are spot on right now with temperature is set at 78 degrees fahrenheit showing on three separate thermometers and salinity is at 1.024 ppm with before and after calibration. I know my parameters are good, due to just completing all of the Triton Lab suggestions per their schedule three days ago. The list of Triton Lab's suggestions consisted a three consecutive day trace element dosing, adding in Rowaphate after trace element dosing and a 15% RODI water change of a salinity at 1.024 ppm.

My setup is as followed:
125 gallon marineland with corner overflows
Trigger Triton CR 44 v2
Maxspect Aeraqua Duo AD600 Protein Skimmer
Maxspect Turbine Duo TD-9K
2 - Maxspect Gyre xf 280
3 - Maxspect Ethereal LED Lights
2 - Aquatop sub heaters
Running part of the Triton method (waiting for the 4 dose solution)
Have, but not setup or inuse is the Neptune System "Apex" (main controller, auto feeder, doser, doser containers, hard surfaces leak detector, four probes and two power pack hubs)

After killing 39 fish I wouldn’t be taking any short cuts.. go fallow for a couple months.

Time will eradicate the problem? The brooklynella doesn't stay dormant on the fish that are resist to the disease and are left in the tank, then attack the new fish after a few months? If that is the case what is the time frame to assure the disease has been eradicated from the tank environment?

Fallow means empty of fish. So by definition leaving the surviving fish in the tank means you’re not running it fallow. I agree with Retro Reefer, you’ve already killed 39 fish, which side note seems excessive for a 120, why try cutting corners still. Fish disease forum has info on fighting brook. Following it is the best course of action. Looking for someone to reinforce what you want to do likely will cause more fish death.
