I purchased 4 little goldfish from WalMart, I've heard Rumors that fish from there are diseased. so I have them in a 0.5 gallon tank with blue rocks and thats it I plan to quarantine them for 4 weeks. I can't put them in a larger tank, no way I'm putting them in my main tank and my only alternative tank has 4 big turtles (not the best environment)

so am I doing everything right?

  1. you bought feeder fish and the truth is they are not breed for surviveabilty it isn't that they are full of diseased and the thing with quarantining new fish you should also be treating them for parisites just haveing them in a seperate tank doesn't prevent anything if your not treating for possiable problems since they are feeders I would give them to the turtles and be done with it


  2. O.O .5 gallon? if your doing a quarantine for multiple fish i think you should get something a little bigger. they may be stressed which will just worsen the disease.

    but other than that, yeah your doing everything well
