im just curious what size you recomend for QT...as i will be setting one up very soon...i am looking at about a 30g tank with mechanical filtration...

well, with anything else, the bigger the better. however most people cant afford the space for massive QT tanks. if you are only introducing small reef fish than the minimal 10g tank is good enough. if you are planning on QTing smaller tangs and such, than 30g and up is much better than a 10g obviously. i have a 29 T myself. a 30g is a nice sized QT IMO

in this case the bigger the better go with the biggest you can get by on your buget

For me it's more of a space issue so I have to do with a 10g. But I think that's big enough since the fish I want to keep are all smaller reef fish.
