Hello,
I might purchase a few discus tomorrow but I'm worried i could end up killing all my angels or all the discus with pathogens from each other.

I'm moving an angel pair out of a 29 to quarantine the discus. Will the discus be killed from being in their water?
Also I don't have a second quarantine tank so I can't do the sacrificial lamb thing because that would risk all of my discus.


I really might just have to skip on discus unless you guys know of a way I can safely quarantine and mix the fish.
Any help?

:popcorn: Second separate tank & utensils is gonna be necessary to properly quarantine the new fish before you can even THINK about mixing them. There are those who will say go ahead & toss them in together but that's risky at best & crazy at worst. I would take my time & do it right. JMPO "T"
