    At last I can’t take it anymore. The 3 strip has been eaten my pineapple coral http://www.3reef.com/forums/id/not-lobo-brain-130797.html and at this point she is really looking bad.

    So I have decided to put up a 10g rehab tank to see if I could get her to come back as I continue to try and catch the 3 stripe

    Is there anything special I will need? Or just do a regular setup?

    I generally try to keep my QT/Hospital tank as small as possible.

    Just to be sure, are you putting your fish or your coral in the extra tank? If its the coral then hook up your tank to your sump and run it into your system. If its your fish then I just use a HOB filter with floss, two aeration stones and plenty of hiding spots. I wouldn't hook up your QT to your main system though.
