I am planning on setting up a QT tank for a 2” Foxface that has ick. My family member doesn’t have the capability to take care of this fish anymore. If I am only putting one to two juvenile fish in a QT tank, would a 10g work or would I be better on getting a 20g?
 
if you plan on doing tank transfer method 10g would be ok, if you plan on copper treating for an extended period of time then more water volume is advisable. I had 29g setup for 4 small fish and it worked perfect with a cycled dual sponge filter driven by an air pump
