for a qt, all you need is a large enough tank to be stable and small enough for frequent water changes 10-20g would do.. some pvc pipes and fittings for fishes to hide.. an airpump at least.. an OHF would do..

no sand para madaling malinis yung dumi.. use a net na lang..

Skimmer kailangan pa? I have an extra aerator type skimmer now. Can I use that in the QT tank as well?

Would you happen to have a picture/sample of a QT tank?

Some updates:

1. Reserved a Beckette Skimmer package from MH c/o Wiley and Gener. Will get it within the week.

2. Setup 2 30gal quarantine tanks with skimmer and overhead filter. Transferred all fishes from my 29gal nano reef tank to 1 qt and put in some new fishes i got in the 2nd qt.

3. Tank design would be external side overflow to maximize viewing space as well as minimize obstructions in the tank. Design is as follows:



**Don't remember exactly whose thread here in RP I got this from but Thanks to him! hehe!

4. Purchased a 15inch LED rechargeable emergency light from a friend for moon light purposes.

5. Basic cabinet design of the tank is as follows:



Sorry for the poor drawing! Di ako marunong mag autoCAD eh! hehe!

Currently canvassing prices of the tank and cabinet.

Now all I need is the sump design, the prices, some other equipments, piping layout, sand, liverocks, and of course the BUDGET! heheh!

Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated!
