AndrewT Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Im thinking of setting up a small quarantine tank cause my blue hippo keeps getting ick. What all do i need to set up a small 10g tank. do i need a skimmer or can i just slap a small hob filter on it? any tips as to how to address this too? Anything thats reef safe? I really dont want to go through the hell of tying to catch him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kkiel02 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Most of the post I read is that a simple hang on filter will work but you will need to do freguent water changes since you cannot keep live rock in there. Also a sponge that could be used to get bacteria out of your dt could be put in the qt to help. A 10g might be too small for a blue hippo though. Remember ick is an invert so the treatment will most likely kill all other inverts in this tank. Just a reminder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
