You live 2 blocks from my house. Come checkout my setup.

check out this month's tank of the month (click the picture). Darryl (reefermadness) has a closet basement setup that you can probably take a lot from given what you have to work with.

I saw that one. Looks great.

I wanted to check through all the other TOTM winners, but I can't for the life of me remember how to access the previous winners thread. Anyone got a link?

Just wondering about Quarentine tanks...

I will have a 20-30 Gallon Quarentine/emergency/hospital tank. Should I keep this plumbed into the main system or just put a AC110 Fuge mod HOB filter on it?

I assume that plumbing it into the main system is a bad idea in case diseased fish have water bourne diseases.

What should I be putting in the QT? Just a couple of hiding rocks?

This will be the first time that I have ever actually had a running QT tank.

Keep the QT simple not plumbed to main tank, you are right in thinking of water born disease. Just a couple rock would be a good idea as well, they can always be removed to you main sump if you need to treat with and meds.

Thats great! Thanks Grizz.

Also, as far as equipment rooms, I finally found out how to get to the other FTOTM threads. This one from Rus in April 2011 was something that I was truely jealous about. I'm sure I will take a lot from this thread for sure.
