Qt question

[heyfredyourhat]

I bought a foxface (about 2") yesterday and put him in my 10g QT, question is is it too small for him to get "comfortable" becasue he still looks stressed out?

I want to observe for a few weeks but if he is going to be skiddish then i am not sure what to do, i dont have any other larger tanks i can use to QT him in....

The 10 should do for now. I would suggest that you get a larger QT tank for the future. Maybe a used 20 gallon tank.

Its on the list, the ever growing list!

Many fish stores keep specimens in multiple 10 gallon tanks with no real problems. I don't think a couple of weeks in a ten should cause any undue stress on the fish.
