So I'm finally getting another 55 to put all the fishes in my 20 gal community.
This means I'm going to finally be able to set up a hospital tank with it's own filter, heater, and lighting system.
I've never set up a hospital tank and I could use all the help I can get. I'm assuming it needs to be cycled, so will my bio media in the filter be enough that I can remove the substrate, or should I leave the substrate in? It should be somewhat sterile, right? Does lighting make a difference? Should I keep the filter running even if I don't have a fish in QT? I have a hundred questions lol
