I thought the im 6 gallon tank below looked really nice. If I set one up as a coral/cuc qt what else would be needed? Light, heater, small power head? Would you need a job filter if you did weekly water changes?

Are you going to begin with water from a cycled tank? If so, weekly water changes without a filter should do, but 'not' if you are going to QT even one rather small fish using 'new' RODI water; my experience is that the ammonia from a fish would rise in about 3-4 days, in a 6-gallon (5 1/2 usable gallons?). But again, you seem to be sticking to corals and CUC inhabitants, so seems OK to me. Best wishes!

Size would be limiting for numbers of frags. Water stability would be difficult, but could be managed.
