quarantine tank. If i set it up, I'll have a tank that will be a frag tank, but i can use it as a qt if i need to. hmmmm! Perhaps Ill fill it up now and get it started!

I'm avoiding doing a paper you see...

 

[nissan577]

lol. well ive been cycling the water for like 1 month already. i had it before with corals but i transfer them to my 29. and is a quarantine like a hospital tank?

 

[alexa11]

Yes. Some people put anything new in qt before they put them in their dt (display tank) for a while to make sure they are healthy and won't infect their tank. Others use them as a hospital tank. I have set it up in my room! Now i really can frag in a while once it has cycled!

lol i got some kenya trees in the mail a while back that the bag had totally ripped about a 2 inch slit and the box was wet and leaking, and they popped back and are huge now.

 

[nissan577]

i hope so. well i just got back from my mail office. and the box was filled with water. my kenya and one frag were ok. except the PEs i think. the bag ripped. and i put it on my tank now with the little water it had. hopefully thats ok. im just sad.

i hope rebel can help.

take those corals out asap, let them slime up in the air for 10 sec or so, and pop them right in the tank!
