So this Thursday I am getting my other tank set up, 265 Gallon 7 foot. Cycle will prob be a month to 6 weeks tops I figure. I currently have a 120 Gallon and that tank cycled in 2.5 weeks but everything except for sand was brought from a functioning tank, so even though there was some dye off in the rocks it cycled quick. I wanted to get the fish into QT now so it can coincide with the cycle. I already learned the hard lesson of not Quarantining fish since I lost almost all my fish once in the 120 to velvet. I will never not QT again, but I want to do it right and not stress the fish any more than Necessary.
I have up to now QT'd in a 20 Gallon tank. I wanted to get a few bigger fish to start, 4-5 inches. Was thinking a Blonde Naso and possibly Achilles or Sail fin, might be a little too much to start. I was wondering if it is OK to QT these two together for a few weeks in that small of a tank. I have QT'd other tangs together but most were small. Also, especially since these are a little more high end, should I start with diffrent fish once the cycle is done
