Hi Mike, Are you using the Black PVC ? Is it toxic ? We have a great discussion last month in a French forum , and everybody have his opinion on the Black PVC.

I can't add much to Big John's comments. I personally believe that bare tanks are best for quarantining fish. I don't use anything in mine that can't be easily sterilized or thrown away without regrets (PVC pipe instead of clay pots, coconut shells; that kind of thing). I tend to keep them in unlit tanks to lower stress. T. candidi should be treated similar to discus; keep them warm (85ºF/30ºC).
