Question(s): when setting up a qt tank — does the nitrogen cycle no longer matter in desperate times? Or should I use some of my tank water to fill the qt tank? Or should I purchase nitrifying bacteria to fill the water? Also, is no real filtration fine? How would you guys go about setting up a qt tank, using an old top fin 10 gallon starter kit?
Also, what is the best way of transferring fish without stressing them more (especially for the firefish, who is honestly doing the worst of them all right now)?
