The story is overly complicated. The Angle was going to be moved into a 75g(from a 20g) I had set up with sand and rock, but a sick puffer was placed in the tank. The puffer died so I broke down the tank since it hadn't been up for long. The eel was the only animal in the tank when the puffer died so it went into
qt just incase.
I set up a 55g at my grandparents. Bare bottom with a single large rock in it. 100% of the water I used had been in my larger reef system. There is a large power head and heater in the tank, as well as a thermometer, but no form of filtration. I was going to plumb it to three 20g tanks which have been running for years when I returned home today, but that is obviously not going to happen now This was just to hold them until I could set up the 75g.
The tang was not QTed as I was a bit rushed and couldn't set up another small tank and do a lot of water changes on it because I had to leave the tanks for a week. The tang had been in a friends reef system for ~2years. His former owner hadn’t bought or added anything to the tank in months because he knew he was going to have to break down the tang this month.
I'm living half the time in the northern part of the state and half the time in the southern part of the state a block away from my grandparents.
Sorry if that was TMI(too much info). Ask me questions if I left anything out.
