Can Clownfish get ich?

Hi,

Was wondering if clownfishes also get marine ich and produce cysts or they can only develop brook?
My real question is actually if a 4-6 week hyposalinity treatment is necessary for newly acquaried clownfish or just formalin treatment enough?
 
Ich - absolutely yes.
And Brook can get you too ;) But an hour in a formalin dip can halt that almost immediately.

What are you getting if you don't mind? Depending on what you get, it could determine how you handle them initially.

How you deal with this may also depend on the supply chain and exactly where these come from. WC, CB, etc...

PM if you want.
 
I'm planning on buying new clownfish and just wanted to know if I had to qt them in hypo or just the formalin would do.
I guess I'll just QT them in hypo for a month.
