i am reaquascaping my tank and will have to remove my fish for 72 hours.
I have a 32 bio cube for fish QT, 2 10 gallon coral QT and 6 40 gallon trash cans for water change that will all be available to hold the fish.
Am I better off to put the fish in a trash can with a heater and no filter or would the biocube be a better option.

If the customer e has filtration, I'd go that route. Short term they probably won't be happy, but will when the tank is done.
Don't Dilly dally, have everthing ready to go before you start

Thank you both. Foxface is around 4.75” Naso is 4”
I am going from sand bed to barebottom with a starboard bottom. The sealant says “at least 24 hours” to cure so I want to give it 48 hours.
I do have my propagation tanks but I know it will be a nightmare to try and get the fish back out of them.
