Where to get qt’d frags

[Wildreefs]

Does anyone know of a place, or person that sells Acro frags, that have been kept ins. Fishless system to avoid ich, velvet etc from being on the coral or plug?

doubting my qt abilities to qt sps, difficult enough to keep them alive in display.

That’s a good question, I am not sure personally. I am growing acros but with fish in the frag tanks. I personally had all my fish QT before going in and keep black molly in them for confirmation of no inch. I suspect there are some companies that do fishless.

If your fish are healthy they shouldn’t get ich, unless you introduce a really sick fish

Battlecorals did an AquaBionics test on his system which tested for some fish parasites. I hope Adam will do this periodically. The AquaBionics tests for fish parasites are early in their development. There is an R2R article.
If you purchase from a vendor that does not sell fish at all I think it is unlikely to transmit velvet. Battlecorals is the only vendor that has ever responded when I asked about fish parasites.
I tried the fishless coral QT and it was a failure. A dedicated system populated with mollies should work better.
My fish are healthy but they will still get parasites.

Trust only yourself. Then you have no one to blame but yourself.

Why was qt a disaster?
