Bought guppies and snail at petco and have them in a bowl isolated. They don't show signs of disease like ick. Should I continue the quarantine or wait it out ?

Also bought a suckerfish, and four tiny tetras and a potted plant from Walmart and was going to isolate them longer because it's Walmart. What should I do? Play it safe I'm sure you'll say.

Do you have an established community you're going to add them to or just starting out? If you have an established community you need to keep them quarantined even though they seem fine now. Give them a week or two and anything that was there will show itself.

>suckerfish
>tetras
For the suckerfish, is it a Pleco or a Chinese Algae Eater? I need an ID on the tetras as well.
Snails can't get ick or spread it, it's only a fish disease as far as I know.

Pictures would be VERY nice as well.

snails can't be infected with ich, but they can physically carry it on or in their shells or guts.
