Quarantine size

[fishnut321]

hi, ive gotten a bit paranoid after seeing my 6 line wrasse scratching so i want to put all my fish in quarantine and do hypo. I currently have:

1 ocellaris clown 1"
1firefish 1.5"
1. 6 line wrasse 2"
1. mandarin 2"
1 clown goby .5"


i have a ten gallon tank with hob filter. I will add my remora skimmer on to the quarantine tank as well. Will this tank be big enough??

how often and how much should i do as far as water changes?

thanks

anyone? i moved the fish last night after the lights went out and htey are currently happy in their new home for the next 6 weeks.

I think a 15 gal would be good enough for a hospital tank. I use a 20.
Also, If I remember correctly, the Mandarin dosen't need to be put in, I don't think it's possible for them to get Ich due to their type of slime coat.

ive heard that as well, but ive also heard accounts of them getting ich. Might as well err on the side of safety.
