this may be wrong, but when i bought my PBT or for that matter any other fish all i do is make sure it looks healthy when i buy it, take a real good look while acclimating it and just drop it in the tank when it is done acclimating.

i have never once had an ich outbreak. my PBT ate mysis the first day and grazed the rocks for algea. only thing i noticed with mine is how aggressive it is if you introduce a new fish to the tank. my wife just had to have a new flame hawk after seeing it in the store and it barely survived the first night. the PBT turned into a shark that was in a feeding frenzy. beyond that the PBT is pretty shy, a pretty good eater and friendly to all the other tankmates.
