6 weeks fallow: long enough?

[ezhoops]

My tank has been fallow (without fish) for 6 weeks, 43 days to be exact. Is this long enough to beat ICH? I know some suggest 8 weeks but I am really getting pressured by the kids and wife to put the fish back in. The fish that are in qt (pair of clowns and a black velvet angel) have been in qt as many days and are doing great.

Let me know what you think?

Would wait the 8 weeks. Tell the family good things are worth waiting for.

Everyone has their own opinion on this. I ran mine fallow and the fish in hypo for 5 weeks and it is GONE!

Fend off the urge, and run fallow the 8 weeks.
