Trying to come up with some christmas ideas for my wife. Trying to keep the fish side of it small this year since thats all she ever gets me.
I saw Petco is having a decent sale on tanks and air pumps currently so I might have her pick me up a quarentine set up.
I was thinking 2 10 gallon tanks and 1 20 gallon tank with an air pump and some air stones. This will be my setup for my planned 300 build so I want to make sure I have enough tanks to add the fish in groups.
I usually pay my LFS to quarantine, but that gets pricy and with the amount of fish going in the 300 I want to try it myself. I've never done it before so any suggests on equipment, what chemicals to use (besides copper) and test kits. I don't really even know where to start with the whole process besides I need a tank, PVC fittings, copper and test kits. My old LFS did a 3 step QT, does anyone know what they may have been doing? Usually took about 6 weeks with recovery time.
