In a month or two I will be ready to start stocking some fish. I was wondering what club members are doing for quarantine setups. Size, filtration, maintenance, duration and prophylactic treatment, etc...
 
20+ g bare bottom. Good heater, stable temps important. Keep a lid on it. For me I get the fish eating first then run 2 weeks of copper and then prazipro (2x shots 3 days apart). All depends on how the fish is doing, adjust course as needed. Some fish hate cooper, generally smooth skinned fish do the research on that. I like some type of biological filter along with mechanical filtration. Siphon the bottom as need to keep things clean

OMG Putz was actually helpful here for once and it pains me to say it but....+1
 
I agree with what Marty posted, a 20+ bare-bottm qt with a few hidding spots will do great.
