I've decided to do a quarantine tank since it's so useful according to people and I have a few questions, it's a small one 5 gallons because I can't really get a bigger one, Can I cycle it? I don't want to torture fish in ammonia and do 50% changes everyday so I prefer to cycle it already, if yes then can I first add water from my fish tank, for some bacteria? Or just bottled? anyway here's how the QT looks

Yeah a regular plastic box with a filter and a heater and pipes for hiding, my filter isn't that strong, just lt a waterfall so should I add a power head in there?

This is the hang-on filter, I'll add some media from the display tank in there.

Yes, this equipment can work but you will be limited to small fish.

Yes I don't buy bigger ones yet, just small clowns and green chromis, there's lots of responses but I ask same questions a lot to be 100% sure if I'm doing everything good
