So I've never really quarantined my fish before putting them in the tank if I go to one of my local fish stores but there is one fish store around me that sells fish a ridiculously low price with a really wide selection to choose from but the only thing is, it's almost always just a 50-50 chance of getting ich or some other disease because they do not take good care of there livestock. I have gone there for freshwater fish all the time and I've almost always come out happy, but for saltwater fish I've had my ups and downs. I have no doubt that I can make the fish healthy by quarantining it before putting it in my tank but I've never done this so I wouldn't know what to do.
Luckily I have an extra 5 gal laying around with a heater and a sponge filter so I'm good on the equipment side of it, it's just I'm, not too sure what I should dose with and for how long. I've heard copper works good but I've also heard a lot of fish just won't tolerate it. any suggestions? Please let me know. Thanks.
