queen angel tank dellema advice please

ok heres the story my gf thinger wanted a queen angle for her 225. i got one from a local reefer who was breaking down his tank hes about 4-5 inches, problem solved...... until the day i was picking it up, her tank got ick.i had already paid for the fish so i had to take it. i barrowed a 40 gallon breeder from a friend for just in the mean time but he now needs the tank back. so now im left with 3 options. put the queen in the ick tank and pray.or put it in a 29 gallon biocube wich used to house mmy octopus and now only has a damsel and a pencil urchin. or put it in my 55 gallon reef and pray it doeesnt kill/ eat any coral... im leaning tward the biocube. any input?

 

I say try the reef. If she starts picking you can move her, but try that tank first since it's bigger.

 

I would take everything out of the biocube and put her in that.

 

+1 on the biocube until the 225 is clear.

 

I would recommend to put her in the biocube as well.... that way you don't run a risk with your corals or other fish.
Best of luck to you!

 

the biocube is more or less empty 1 small damsel an the urhin nd some crabs.im just nervious its to small for it.although he is quite content in the 40.the swich is going down fri. thanks for the input ...any1 else?

 

While the biocube is not ideal, it is better than a tank infested with ich or a reef tank. Consider the biocube a quarantine tank. It is not a permanent home and will be fine until her tank is ready for it.

 

+1 to that. its just like quarantining a fish more or less.

 

my only other problem is with stocking the tank. i was planning to add the queen last guess ill hafta redo the rock afew times
