Well to be honest it is best to have already set up a quarantine tank with an aquaclear hang on or other cheap filter. Set up a 10-20 gallon quarantine like that with a damsel in it full time and you won't ever have a problem.

Too late I am afraid ... got 3 Heniochus diphreutes and did a freshwater bath on them prior to adding to display tank ( not for 8 minutes mind you ) and a couple days later here I am ... Yellow Tang / Purple Tang / Foxface / Copper Banded Butterfly / Ocelaris Clown / 5 Green Chromis and of course the 3 Heni's

Tried Kyolic Garlic soaked foods for a few days but got scared that I might loose my fish so dumped the gravel out of a 55 Gallon tank I was setting up for frags and added cupramine and tore down the rocks/corals to get the fish out. I have a aquaclear hang on from the freshwater days ... can I add some gravel from my sump to it to create a nitrifying bacteria ? ... Moved them today to the hospital tank.

What do you see?
Are the fish respiring rapidly?

One of the Heni's is respiring rapidly

Let me know what your fish look like currently.

Looks like salt on the Tangs and dust/salt on the fins of the Heni's


Thanks a ton for your responses so far

Cheers
