the longer you stay in the hobby and the more you invest in fish--the more dangerous it is to not quarantine fish for at least 4-6 weeks. Ich is probably the easiest invertebrate to introduce to the fish in the main tank and then you have real problems isolating and treating the fish. Ich can show up after 10-12 days of not being visible on the newly aquired fish--so it is a real safe bet to quarantine
