Re: Ich/Quarantine ?'s

You can use sand in your QT tank. Normally I don't recomend it because you can't treat that particular lifestage in the parasites lifecycle. However in this situation I would use sand either use sand in the entire QT or you can actually just put some rubbermaid/plastic containers with sand in them.
If you do use substrate in the QT you want to use a longer QT period and I still recomend copper and copper test kit for this. Just don't reuse the sand or rocks in your display.
And like Doni said above, the main display must be left fallow for this to work.

As far as aiptasia removers I've only had success with Joe's Juice or kalkwasser injected directly into them...
