Is a pair of 10gal tanks acceptable to use for QT? I am just wondering. If not i could use my 30gal, but i would like to use the 10s if possible. One would be for fish, the other for corals.

It can be depending on the fish. 10g for a tang? No. 10g for a small clownfish? Yes.
 
So i should probably just go with the 30 gal then so i can keep using it when i move to other types of fish. I will probably keep a 10gal just in case for small fish and the likes. Also qt cleaning crew inverts, or no??

I would go with the 30, then it allows PLENTY of swimming/hiding room which will make the fish more comfortable and they will have an easier time with QT.

I plan on quarantining inverts when I re-do my tank, keep in mind they should not be put into a tank that has had copper in it. So if you want, use the 10g for QTing corals and inverts, use the 30 for fish only.
