I have 2 new clown loaches that have been in quarintine for 1 week. Do you think that this is enough time?

I normally Q-tank my Loaches for at least 3 weeks. Even then the syptoms of Ich can rear it's ugly head from them. Normally 4 weeks for me.

Two week minimum for all fish. For fish like Clown Loach that are prone to one disease or another at least 4 weeks, as has been said. Even longer if necessary.

I average a week, but can go much higher depending on where the fish came from
