![]() A heater should not burn your fish.
I was wondering if everyone keeps their quarantine tank up and running or just set them up when obtaining new fish? I worry about stressing the fish out with the tank "cycling" if they keep the fish quarantined for a few weeks. Therefore, I keep my quarantine tank running constantly with a few fish to keep it stable for new arrivals. I have a simple small skimmer, external filter and natural sunlight.

![]() For lighting, I will have the QT tank right in between my reptile (10 gal with very old green anole, nothing special, it's got 2 lights on it, one flouresent, one plant-grow bulb) set-up and the main aquarium, so i'm thinking it will get plenty of the light it needs.
I'll probably keep mine running. Not exactly sure yet. |

![]() Hey, i bet this would work pretty well?
A bit more expensive but very suitable. Could be used easily after you're done with it as a QT too! $169.99 http://oceanaquatics.com/store/produ...CI-12.5G-Tank/ |
