    Hi there,
    I am wanting to set up a small quarantine tank for corals and such. How small can a quarantine be? I was thinking 3-5 gallons since I have limited space. I was going to take a 1-2 pound rock from my current reef tank, salt water, small heater etc. Is this to small of a quarantine set up? Lighting for quarantine? Im new to reefing so Im just not sure.

    Thanks for any help! :)

    I would go with a 10g to 20g.
