QT tank ? for beth

[reefin]

i was a little confused after reading your article on how to setup a qt tank. i know that you need water movement so i will have a ph in my tank but do you need another form of filtration, if so would a simple aqua clear 150 biological filter be fine (snonge and carbon). would you run the carbon if you weren't treating the water with anything? i plan to use a regular 20 gallon as my qt tank.

I have run QTs simply with PHs, however, a filter is a better way. Yes, you can use carbon unless you need to medicate.

if i use the aqua clear should i just do regular water changes rinsing the sponge out with tank water?
