20% every day from the big tank.
egg crate and zip ties are your friend! just be careful with cut edges of crate and zip ties as they can cause quite a bit of harm to a fish.

I also have one that is made out of plastic, but it's too small.
The Gem is looking like he'll be in there for around 3-4 months, so I wanted good space for him.
I'm not more than likely going to get a Zebra Tang and will need to extend the fish in current QT as well as the Gem in acclimation until the Zebra is out of QT. No way a new Zebra could go in with all the old tangs and the new batch...
Yeah basically just this. I also made a little trap door on the top with zip tie hinges and used a re-usable zip tie as the "lock" to put nori in each day.
Also I had the box zip tied to the bracing, problem was two wrasses jumped on top and died. Now moved it down about 6 inches into the water with two large PVC spacers. No more issue, the Crosshatches and Bandit even swim on top during meal time haha
The fish seem pretty smart about not scratching themselves. LR and coral can be pretty sharp as well
No... they are all skittish for the most part and the QTs are pretty dark. Sorry, it's hard for me to get a great look of them as well
Just enough to see they don't have any health issues.
No problem, I'll try to update more often

Yeah way too much to look at there :eek1:
I've only been there once, but I'll make sure to stop by again next time we're in LA.

They seem to be great friends now... who knows how long that'll last.
I had a RW20 fall off it's rubber mounts yesterday and 1/4 of the sand got blown around and two rock got knocked over. Took a while to get everything back to "normal"... ugh always fun!
