is there a list or can someone post a list of the fish species that can stay in a display tank during hypo in a qt.

i have heard blennnies and manderins....any more?
 
I'd be interested in this too. It was my understanding that only inverts were not susceptible to ich. I removed all of my fish and left my inverts. Tank will remain fishless for 6 weeks. I don't want to deal with this again.

I am now a believer in the QT tank even though it is a huge imposition.
 
Mandarin is the only fish i know that won't get ick. Sharks and rays can't tolerate Hypo so if u have any of them, keep them in the main ;)
 
I believe all fish can get ick. If they have gills they are suseptable to getting ick and having rapid breathing.
