QT tank question

[paulz01]

sooo i just lost my 20 gallon QT tank it cracked for some reason...

i have a big fish that is need of QT he's about 12 inch long...

my question is will he be good in a 10 gallon tank while i treat him??

for a very brief period of time with frequent frequent WCs and a decent filter

with Bud_Man_Jr, don't do it, he will hurt himself turning around and it create even more stress.

$20 can get you a 50g tub and you can use the 10g as a sump .

ty for the responses!

he's already in a 10g but i can always put him in one of the rubbermaid tubs...

my only thing for the tubs is that i can't see if he made improvements or not ya know what i mean? my tub is red i cant barely see anything if i put water in it.

but i do agree if hes gonna add more stress ill put him in the tub tomorrow morning

Make sure you do W/C and have filter, pump, and heat in the tub!
