From reading the various posts and learning my lesson with the store water into my display tank, it's time to get a quarantine tank. Question - can the QT double as a hospital tank for medications if a fish gets sick? What size should it be and what should go in it. I don't have alot of room...
Thanks for the info, I'll give it a try. I currently have a 65 gallon tank. I just got the wrasse and I can't remember what kind to save my life! It is white with a black stripe running down it's back with two orange spots on him.
Can I put some inverts in my tank to help with cleaning the live rock and substrate. Like a cleaner shrimp, snails, etc. I currently have a sailfin tang, a sohol tang, a gobie, clownfish, and a wrasse(small). Do inverts do ok in a FO tank? Thanks
What is a QT? Sorry if a dumb question.....
