Woke up to two dead fish in my wife's tank this morning and a missing goodeid.

Also noticed that I have ick in that tank. I love getting new fish.

Off to Wal-Mart.

Yep I think we need a talk on quarantining fish. I got some cardinals yesterday and even though they look great, quarantine for 2 weeks. Maybe this was that missing myth at last month's meeting.

Quarantine wouldn't have prevented the two dead fish.

The only thing it would have changed in my case would be the amount of medicine I am adding.

I am a big supporter of quarantining fish. I am just not a good practitioner of it.
