I just want to make sure I'm doing this correctly.
new to saltwater tank 2 months in.
background info: bought 6 month old used SW tank
moved 15Gallon tank over to 30gallon long tank
50+ hours of doing research on everything
so i know my equipment isn't the best but i'm
current equipment:
30 gallon tank got used from a friend
jbj lights 65w
coral light 65w and a 65w i guess considered a moon light?
marineland 55gal filter (houses older bacteria from previous 15gal)
red sea dlx skimmer (i guess you can say decent)
jbj 7w submariner uv sterilizer (recently installed)
2 aquaclear 20 powerheads (1 from previous tank)
150w heater (stays at 80f)
future:
**will setup a HOB refugium** i have a ghetto stand so don't ask why i don't have a refugium/sump just yet
absolutely no space under the tank and i don't understand the extreme concepts of plumbing just yet
NOW TO THE PROBLEM: ICK
I separated all the fish into the Hospital tank treated with Copperamine
no fish in the DT (inverts and clean up crew still there)
Q) can the cleanup crew get ICk? *i don't want to return the fish in there and possibility still has ick.
Q2) wait time is approximately 2-3 weeks?
Q3) any additional info is helpful!!!??
