I think I came up with a compromise.
If I set up the system so that a couple tanks are together with a sump are sytems. Instead of having one big system, I would have several smaller systems that can be adjusted as required.
that way I can start them off in a hypo situation, then after a couple of weeks of hypo, raise the SG up to normal conditions over 2 or 3 days.
this way I can use the same tanks, and if people want the fish before the 2 week period, I can sell them understanding the need for a longer climatization.
This would increase the costs of the livestock a bit, but I think would be a good compromise between have a full QT system and a full sale System.
