OK -- I am converted. 6 months ago if anyone had mentioned quarantine for 3 weeks I would have laughed.

It took two things
1. an ich outbreak in my 65g
2. reading the articles here -- particularly where tom says that most do not,
just a few commercial and a very few hobbyists.

OK, add me to the hobbyists. I just brought home a 20g tank, lights etc etc,
and it will be a "planted" quarantine tank -- with its own fish too just to keep it
healthy, but NOTHING!!! goes into my show tank until its spent 3 weeks in
my 20g.

Keep pushing, maybe more of us will give in!!
