kwsjimmy Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 A quarantine tank is definitely needed, if you research itch their are a few ways to do it, and a few different medications you can use. But essentially place your fish in a separate tank for 4 weeks is usually suggested as you are medicating. I treated my clown in a small bucket with a air stone and changed the water daily. That's simple, now I have a complete aio tank I use for quarantine fish Link to comment
