All you need to do if you intend on using the tank anytime soon is feed it with a pinch of food occasionally, this will keep the bacteria alive.
QT tanks, if they have been used with medication at all, should be completely cleaned with a vinegar solution to remove totally any traces of medication.
no medication. just had swordtail fry.they are gone now.i was thinking about getting some ghost shrimp.
