Hey Everyone,
Noob learning lessons. I did a 6 week fallow and long story short towards the end, the fish weren’t doing well in the 29gallon QT -they seemed cramped and aggression was stressing severely. I had an unknown disease on the clownfish that now I’m thinking was ich. All of the fish broke out into it again in my 72g display.
What I’m doing now - I got a 55 gallon for cheap and sterilized and left filled with water for 2 days to make sure it was sound. By tomorrow it should be up and I will be transferring the fish to this QT for another fallow. I am almost certain my copper levels were not high enough.
I’m still very lucky with no deaths. I credit it to being very observant and ready to take action if needed. Will keep everyone updated!
