questions about quarantine/frag tank

Tank, heater, powerhead or hob filter, clamp light. That is the basics. If you are doing a frag tank, you will need some sort of lighting preference is whatever you are going to use on the dt. You don't need too big of a tank depending on size fish you are getting. Good luck and let us know if you have more questions.

Thanks I'm starting to move my fish to the 180 now!!

I wouldn't use sand or rock in the QT in case you have to medicate. When I ran my QT as needed, I kept a sponge in the 90 gallon sump. I used the sponge to immediately have a cycled tank ready to go for any new purchase.

A frag tank is basically another reef tank. All the same equipment is required minus a skimmer if you don't have any fish in it. I run my 40 gallon bare bottom with rock in the sump for filtration. I started with a 30 gallon and a HOB filled with rubble rock. Lots of different ways of setting one up, same as any reef tank.

Frag tanks and QT tanks really serve different purposes. You couldn't really use one tank as both at the same time.

Yeah I think we gonna do a quarantine tank sometime.

When I said frag tank I meant coral tank. Sorry for the confusion.
