Hello, new to the forum, need help, I got a fish with ick, so need to setup a qt, what would be the best way to do so
 
Go to petco or petsmart get a 10-20 gallon tank. Buy a heater, a simple HOB filter and test kits for Ammonia and Nitrates. Either buy more mixed water or make some up for water changes, your going to need to do water changes.

What type of fish and how large, is the fish still eating, are your sure it's marine ich?

Everything you need is in this forum.

Good luck and welcome.
 
Welcome to reef2reef! Lots of good info on here. Look through the disease forum here for some info. If the fish was in a display with other fish it is recommend to remove all fish and qt for 7-10 weeks leaving your display tank fishless. This is to rid your display of ich so it is not a reoccurring problem.
 
Good luck hope your fish gets well.
