Hi all. We are in the final stages of setting up our QT/HT system. I just want to make sure I have everything, and that what I have seems ok to you all.
Current Equipment:
3x 40b tanks (2 for fish, 1 for corals)
2x 55g tanks
5x SunSun canister filters w/built-in UV sterilizer
Lots of ceramic bio-media, bio balls, and activated carbon for canister filters
4x 2 bulb T5HO fixtures
1x custom LED fixture for Coral tank
5x 250W heaters
5x thermometers
1x large air pump
Many air stones
Airline
Airline check valves
Airline gang valves
5x 528gph Propeller powerhead pumps
1x Jebao RW-4 wavemaker pump for coral tank
I plan on getting PVC fittings of various shapes and sizes to use for hiding places. We also plan on doing TTM with ALL new fish purchases, before going into QT for observation and preventative treatments for other parasites, worms, or illnesses. All coral and invert purchases will go into the coral holding tank (with NO fish) for 3 months before going in the DT.
How does this sound? Anything I forgot? Any additional advice you can give is appreciated. This is my first time setting up a proper QT system. In the past we never QT'd anything, but now we have a 300g system and don't want to risk it on a system this size.
