How long in Q/T

[sangusjr]

Hi all, quick question, I got placed 4 fishes in my quarantine tank at 7pm on Tuesday, 4/11. They were 2 female guppies and 2 Tetra white skirt.

Question, how long should they remain in there. They all seem in excellent health, eating okay, swimming around fine.
Would another couple days be okay.

Thanks. Art.

2 weeks imo

I agree with Dutchmuch. I usually quarantine new fish for a couple of weeks. It may take that long for any diseases or abnormalities to show up.

Ouch !! thanks for the guidance, I thought a week or so. But with the chance of infecting and causing distress to the fishes in the main tanks I guess better safe than sorry.
Thanks to you both.
