I have been lucky fish wise, and have avoided quarantine of my fish after purchase.... But we all know luck eventually runs out with disease or injury. Plus I have a yellow tang that I am keeping a close eye on. So with that in mind I have decided to set up a hospital tank that will also be used for treatment and/or quarantine of future purchases to avoid the game of roulette when introducing new fish to my tanks.
So...help me come up with the ideal system without going overboard. Having a few tangs I imagine 20g won't do. Will 40g be adequate if one needs to be hospitalized or quarantined? I currently have a 180G, 25G lagoon as displays and a 13.5 Evo for growing out frags and quarantine of new corals.
I have a couple extra Kessil A80s with controller, cheap wave maker, some cycled live rock I don't mind dedicating if need be laying around so I can get this up and running.
Just would like some opinions on tank size and hob filter or canisters that won't break the bank. Also, the must haves for immediate treatment of the most common issues.
Thanks in advance.
