Existing fish and new tank, should I QT?

[beetlenut33]

Hello everyone,

I am currently cycling a new tank and will start adding fish to it soon.

In the past, I have never quarantined fish and have paid the price battling disease. This time around, I want to do it right and not have to deal with any disease. I can't afford to be careless and impatient with this new tank.

That being said, I currently have a flame angel and a pair of clowns in my old tank. They are in great health and show no signs of disease. I have had the fish for approximately 3 to 4 months. These fish will be transferred to the new tank once it is cycled. I am debating with myself and trying to decide if it is worth treating my existing fish with copper before they go in the new tank? Since they are in good health, I can just put my existing fish into my new tank and then quarantine all new additions going forward. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

If they are healthy in your current tank, then just put them in your new one once its ready. But QT any additional fish that you might want to add
