OK, so the quarantine tank is set up. It's currently seeding with a piece of LR, which will come out before any fish go in. It is barebottom.
Our first planned fish is a sand sifting goby (not sure which, depends on what the store has/can get). I understand they're more prone to ich than some other fish.
My dilemma is whether I should put sand in the quarantine and put the fish in there, or put it the fish straight in the display tank (where there's sand), and remove him if he gets ich (or something else). There are no other fish, so the worst that can happen is that we have to tear the tank down to get him out to treat him.
What would you do?
