Default Darn luck, new aquarium but all old fish are sick !

Hi,

i just spent all my money on a brand new juwel 96l aquarium ! yay, its
been circulating for 2 days, and i was planning on transporting 2 or 3
fish's tomorow , and the rest in a few days...

but noooooooooo! they suddenly got fin rott (is that how its called?) !
i've hightened then temp to 30C , added metilan blue, and later an anti
fin rot liquid called backtopur by sera to handle the fin problem.

the treatment is supposedly 3 days. now here's the catch,
the older aquarium is leaking and i need to move the fish's ... how
soon can i put the fish in the new aqua without risking contamination ?

is it safe to move fish that were in the aqua while treatment and still
havnt shown any signs of fin rot?

HELP SAVE THE FISHIES !

thanks, Lior.



why not pick up a cheap 30 litre wine brewing drum for a tenner and
put the fish in that to finish off their treatment - since its wine
brewing you don't need to worry about the plastic giving off nasty
stuff and it make a good size container for a weekly water change,

Brian
