Hello Everyone.... Can someone let me know if there are some fishes that are harder to get ich? I know mandarin Dragonet is one of them but since my tank is pretty new( only 1 month old).. what are some other that I can have as Livestock? my tank is 72 gal:confused:
 
Quarantine your fish, if they get ich in quarantine, it won't affect your tank, treat the ich with hypo salinity (0.009). Don't go out of your way to get fish just becuase they don't usualy get ich, get the fish you want:).
 
If you let marine diseases control what fish you buy, you are not really going to be able to keep many fish. There are plenty of hardier species, but as julian said above, a simple QT id all that is required and dont buy a fish that does not look in top shape...dont feel sorry for a fish that looks poorly at a lfs, it is certainly not work the risk....
