Feeding both QT and DT

[btkrausen]

I have started to buy fish again after hypo-salinity, and wanted to get ideas on the best way to feed both the DT and QT to keep from bringing anything over by using the same feeding cup.

I was thinking about still soaking the food in a single cup, but then using a teaspoon to pull some out to feed the QT with, and keeping the bigger cup for the DT.

My question is: should I dip the teaspoon in alcohol or something else after using to ensure ick or anything else doesn't get transferred over. I ask this because this is how I got ich in my display

If you guys think its as easy as "Use two different cups for both soaking food and feeding" than let me know. haha

All you have to do is to rinse the teaspoon in the sink and let it dry out, as parasites cannot survive without water.

Thanks, easy enough. I just wanted a second opinion since, like I said, this is how I transferred ich from my QT to my DT and want to be extra careful.

OK, its easy.

Just get a couple of teaspoons, use them once, and run them through the dishwasher before using them again. Plastic spoons work fine.
