I am trying to set up an emergency QT tank. I have read that you don't want to use clean water, because you need some sort of filtration. The QT tank will be a 29 tall. The 80G display tank is coming down completely, and I only need to house 2 clown fish in this QT tank. The clownfish do not show ich at all, but my anthias, flame angel, and yellow tang are all covered in it. but something has been introduced into my system that is killing every fish 1 by 1.
The question I have, is that I have read that you don't want to put DT water in a QT tank because you may transfer the disease, but my sump doesn't run anything other than a skimmer/sock/chaeto - so what do I put into the QT to help with the water? Furthermore, when I treat with cupramine, wouldn't that kill any and all bacteria on the media?
