6 gallon for quarintine tank enough? Edge

ScooterGuitar · 11/08/2009, 09:16 PM

I have an old established tnak, but we want a pair of clowns and maybe a few more smaller fish for it since it only has a handful now (75g). Was going to setup a 20g qt, but saw the FLuval Edge that is 6g and just awesome looking.
Figure after the new fish are over qt I could run it as a nice little freshwater or maybe picoreef.

6g won't be good for qt though I suspect?

6 gal may be enough for small fish that eat well in a small tank

You may like to have a tank for treatment long after QT and introduction of fish into DT.
