what do a need to setup a budget quanrantine tank?


Recommended Posts

due to the repeated white-spot outbreak, now thinking of setting up a quarantine tank, can bros here guide me?

2 x 1 x 1 tank with, some PVC pipes & sponge filter will do. Don't need sandbed and rocks as you may need to administer medications at times. :eyebrow:

yes, i have chiller but only one, and don't want to mix water with the display tank....

Once i had set up a quarantine for my yellow tang, cus it had white spots.

I had a 1.5 X 1X 1 ft tank.

I guess, the tank was too small & the quality of water deteriorated too fast.

Eventually the tang died... & never used it again.

Bottom line is if the quarantine tank is too small, it will end up killing the fish if u put a big fish in like a yellow tang.

Just wanted to share my experience.....
