Hello everyone !
I know i should quarantine new discus before i put into my display tank with my healthy discus BUT if i bought them from the same supplier but its a different shipment from the last time i bought from him do i need to quarantine them for 8 weeks just the same?
On my display tank i run an 18 watt turbo twit UV sterilizer on it would it be safe to add the new discus in the display tank with the UV sterilizer Or should i quarantine just the same.?
Thank for any input you have.
Hi : I always quarantine any new fish . Better to be safe and they are from a different shipment from your supplier. Why take the chance of infecting any stock in your display tank . I have learned the hard way and always QT now . Enjoy your new fish.
Thanks calico3 for the reply that's what i thought to but i thought because it was from same supplier i could speed up the process. Always in a hurry to get them in display tank so i will do the usual 8 week quarantine.
Thanks again.
