    At the start of this thread, Gamma asked about a Nano cube for a quarantine tank. I was thinking about using a 12g for mine any feedback?

    Gamma, I would use a larger tank for quarentine IMHO. I use a 30gL and have used a 29g in past. The larger water volume is more forgiving and the added space is less stressful on larger fish which like to swim such as Tangs and the like. In addition if you ever have to hospitalize more than 1 fish at a time the larger tank will be appreciated. If you must go smaller think about a 20g long due to its longer legnth.
