new tank

[danbedfordshire]

set up my 2nd tank last night, a 18"x12"x12" with hood,light, etc, im gona use it as a qurantine/breeding tank, also im gona breed my own brine shrimp in the tank at the same time with a shrimp hatchery i purchased! Anyone know how good these are?? Also. if i were to put a sick fish in the qurantine tank say with white spot etc, once its treated and return it to its original tank, do i need to reset the qurantine tank again ie a new cycle. or just do a slight water change or something

cheers

Hi Dan!
to the TFF forums!
I think that the shrimp hatcherys are quite good! Once you have treated a sick fish in the new tank, you will only have to do a water change as they medication should have killed the illness!
