I think I have had a breakout of some type of disease in my 55 gallon tank. I have had a couple of triggerfish die as well as a damsel that recently died. The water checked out fine.
After losing the second triggerfish, I broke down the tank and put a good portion of the live rock into a 30 gallon quarantine tank along with the only remaining fish (small damsel who looked bad).
Damsel recovered in the 30 gallon tank with no meds.
The 55 gallon tank was cleaned with bleach, rinsed and rinsed again. I now have it with new filtered water and base rock (some pieces were cleaned with bleach and rinsed very well and placed back in the tank).
My question is have is regarding the live rock that was put into the 30 gallon quarantine tank. Is it safe to put this rock back into my display tank (55)? The one fish in the quarantine tank is a small three stripe damsel who appears to have recovered from his staying in the 55.
Can the live rock be cleaned and placed into the display without danger of bringing in any parasite? I never saw ich but something killed the three fish (2 triggers, 1 domino damsel) over a period of a month or so.
