If I use water from 3 tanks(got to do water change anyway)to fill the quaratine tank,do I still have to cycle it(bare bottom,no rock,just a filter)and is six weeks going to be long enough for both the qt tank and the reef tank with no fish?
I've been feeding the garlic soaked food as much as they(actually all the tanks)will eat several times a day.I've read that lions are copper sensitive,so what else can i use in th qt tank?Come hell or high water,I will rid my fish of this pest!!(I would never foregive myself if I lose them over something that I might have caused

)
