Quarantine Tank Size

[reefervanwinkle]

Hey all, I am setting up a quarantine tank and wondering if a 20 gallon long will be large enough to keep following fish for about 10 weeks for treatment? I will have only pipes stuff to hide in so lots of swimming area but still concerned with the size

Yellow Coris Wrasse
Flame Hawkfish (small one)
Flame Angel (small one)
Swissguard Basslet

I will be doing prazipro followed by cupramine and keeping them in there while my display tank sits fallow for the full 10 weeks or so.

Thanks in advance guys, this will be my first quarantine experience but now that I'm getting some nicer fish coming I want to make this a regular part of my regimen for adding new fish. Any other information will be greatly appreciated

That should work. Keep an eye on ammonia and change water and add Prime as needed.

Oops. No Prime if using copper.

Thanks, appreciate the responses. I will be going slow with the cupramine for sure.

Be sure and get the seachem test kit for copper when using cupramine
