If you want to learn more about the various illnesses our fish get, Matt's doing a presentation at our club meeting in January:

I'm planning on making it, I have so many questions that I'm hoping to get answered. I try to google them first but with multiple answers I'm not sure what to believe.

How to control the ph in the qt?

Am I supposed to use medication on all qt fish, cupramine or prazipro and why.

How much light in the qt?

Maybe a little info on bristle worms, are they a problem or helpful ? How to control them if they get out of hand?

marine velvet (aka "the powdery death sentence") --- unless there seriously IS NO INFO on this anywhere. So far, I've lost 2 Coral Beauties and 2 pairs of clowns to velvet.
 
also... weighing the stress put on a fish by catching it and moving it from the DT to the QT vs. using less effective treatments(reef safe, non copper) and leaving the sick fish in the DT.
 
Do you recommend using something like Safety Stop? :)
 
I want to know how to identify a sick fish ant LFS. What should we be looking for and what questions should we ask the store before we make a purchase.
 
I am going to try and attend as well- I haven't made but a couple meetings but would like to start making more of them.

How about ways to catch/trap the fish you need to QT.
