Hypo help

[roundman]

OK i have ick ! It just started or very small amount and just noticed it. I have a 75 gal FOWLR and some inverts so I know I need to set up another tank to do the hypo tank. I have 2 clowns, 3 chromis, royal gramma, 6 line wrasse, and my prize a copperband butterfly. The copperbad is the one with ick. What size tank do I need to set up for these fish to be in a hypo tank?
Thanks for your help

u shouldnt go no smaller then a 20 gallon also depends on how big the copperband is but still u go smaller then a 20 it will stress out the copperband even more

How much LR and inverts do you have? Do you have live sand? You may be better off setting up a rubbermaid tub for your rocks and inverts. There is no worry about a cycle and your fish do not have to be caught.

about 50 lbs of LR and 60 lbs of LS. 12 hermits, 1 emerald, 1 cleaner shrimp, and 1 serpent starfish.
