10g qt for only corals help

[Matt Miller]

I am setting up a 10g to quarantine some corals I just bought in a live sale.

I don't need to worry about a full cycle do I? I was going to seed the canister filter sponges in my dt for a few weeks then put in with fresh saltwater.

This is the only light I have right now, will this work for a coral qt?

I wouldn't use that due to the red.

You don't need a full cycle, just dump a bottle of bacteria or some established biomedia or sponge. Something like microbacter7 in the tiny bottle would work. I have a small hob filter with ceramic media and carbon, a heater, and a green machine for mine (plus a light I had from the fluval evo tank).

I bought it to set up a fuge with chaeto but don't think I'm doing that anymore.

Thanks, that what I was thinking after looking through other similar threads.
