Sorry to take so long to get back to you. When I quarentined everybody from my display, I used an old hand-me-down 55 gallon that somebody had glued a metal rod to the center for the brace. I hid it in the spare bedroom so nobody would have to look at it. Now I've got a nice 20 long that is permenant. It's a good size since I don't need to quarentine alot any more (I've got a midas Blenny and a 6 line in there now).

How big are your tangs? Maybe you could find a larger cheap used tank like I did, or just use a few smaller ones?

Just a note on the Kick ick... I tried that too, at first. I thought it helped, but the ich ended up returning, even though there were no new introductions. It may work for some but all it did was empty my wallet.

All in all, I think more people have success with copper in a quarentine, and then being careful to quarentine new fish.

Good Luck! Hope it goes by fast for you!
