Ich seldom will kill a fish unless is the powder series tangs so you don't have to worry very much. Now you can choose to live with the ich or eliminate it. Living with ich will required a bit more hard work by ensure your water is good condition and fishes are well fed with vitamins and omega rich foods. If you want to eliminate then you will have to go fishless for 76 days to be safe. You can go fishless with ur invert and coral in your main tank. The only problem will be your quarantine tank can handle all your fish or not? Are you able to manage the bio load while treating them with copper. If not your fish will die faster compare to leaving them in the tank. Nevertheless, I will still encourage you to setup the quarantine thank to handle diesease like velvet, fluke, brook, uronema which is way more deadly and hard to treat when reside in your main tank. If you encountered all these dieaseas you will find ich is nothing much.

The atlantic beauties of the deep. Genus : Prognathodes The genus Prognathodes boasts of 11 known species and 1 undescribed species. They are, P. marcellae, P. aya, P. guyanensis, P. carlhubbsi, P. dichrous, P. obliquus, P. brasiliensis, P. aculeatus, P. basabei, P. guyotensis, P. guezei and P. falcifer. The last is an undescribed species. Out of all 12 species, only P. marcellae is available locally through African shipments. P. aya, P. guyanensis, P. brasiliensis and P. aculeatus are all available but have not reached our local market yet. All are atlantic species, and P. guyanensis is the rarest of this batch and most expensive, at over 1k. P. falcifer, P. carlhubbsi, P. obliquus, P. basabei and P. dichrous are all unobtainable and are super rare. The last two, P. guyotensis and P. guezei are so rare and live so deep, that no proper picture has ever been taken of them. Making their rarity so legendary that words nor pictures can describe it. Reef safe Quality : 80%. This group of butterflies are mainly deep water species that do not see or eat much corals in the wild. They behave themselves very well in the reef tank. Hardiness : Fortunately, they are quite hardy and will feed on mysis shrimp sooner or later. A dim tank is best for them but they can adapt to higher brighter reef quality lighting. Only P. marcellae is available readily locally, so I will only show the photo of this. The other members are extremely beautiful and google images have plenty of images as well as photos of them all! Do take a look at this gorgeous and unique family of fish.
