I lost 3 fish
2 wrasses and the starchi and my friend was holding some for me lost 5 in QT as well.. so 7 wrasses and 2 starckis in 2 months..
I've had terrible luck QT'ing anything. Nothing has made it past treatment except mollies. I'm towards the end of treating a purple tang that i got along with 2 wrasses. Tang is still alive. Wrasses couldn't make it even through TTM. I wanna get a lyre tail anthias but I've lost so much more money QT'ing that idk if I wanna waste more money buying fish lol.
It sucks when you literally follow step by step and no luck

One thing I’ve learned from selecting fish is watching them learn a lot being attention to how they react it might be silly but I will watch a fish for at least 10 minutes before I decide I’m gonna purchase it.

This last 2 were eating and everything until I took them up... the starcki would not move from a corner by still I saw it eating some..
I did not even see aggression !!!
 
For some of the harder to QT fish, it might be worth getting them from a site that does the QTing for you and gives you a guarantee. Leopard wrasses are a good example since so many don't make it through shipping, let alone copper and prazi.
