What is the recommended none-treatment QT time for anemone?

[m0nkie]

Hello. I have a BTA incoming and would like to find out the recommended QT time. Assuming it is healthy and not deflating. How long do I need it in QT to make sure it cannot bring any other possible infection to my current BTAs?

thanks

I had the same question with a gig a while ago and the consensus was 2 weeks.

Two weeks is adequate IMO

pink? most likely it is a slightly bleached rose.

That was my first guess.. then i thought about it being dyed.. the seller has been pretty cool with me and he told me the collector got 3 identical ones.. so i'll give it a try in QT.

I would go at least a month if no treatment is needed.
If treatment is needed I would hold the anemone for a month after the last dose.

That one looks very much like it was dyed to me.

Ya.. so maybe longer in QT just to see what happens.. if it's dyed, it should go downhill pretty fast. Ill be able to get a refund if it is indeed dyed
