At the moment I have two clown fish sitting in QT. I've gone 62 days fallow on my 180 gallon display tank and used tank transfer on my clowns to treat them. They never had ich on them but I knew it was brought into the water by other fish so I pulled them and they're all I have at the moment . My question is has it been long enough to put then back in? There never was a huge outbreak in my tank. Just on spot on a fish and I immediately pulled everyone so I don't think I had a chance for a big outbreak. Good idea or wait longer?
 
I hay be wrong, but I think 60 days is the ich life cycle. But I can't spell my own name sometimes so you may not want to trust me...
 
Average lifecycle for cryptocaryon is 1-2 weeks, but it has been observed to go as long as 11 weeks. You've made it this far, what's another couple of weeks to be sure?

+1 The longest I've read of theronts being released after initial tomont formation is 72 days.

So, to the OP: What's another two weeks just to play it safe?
