 |
|
Hi,
Nicholas bought some new stock a week ago which we have kept in the isolation tank. I can't seem to find anywhere that says how long we should keep new stock isolated, to ensure they are disease free, before adding them to the main tank; please could someone advise us of the recommended time.
New stock is:
6 panda corry cats
4 amano shrimp
2 golden apple snails
Thanks

About three weeks should allow for most diseases to manifest themselves and allow for a steady acclimation to your water.
