Recycling my old tank

[jigsaw1982]

Soon I will be upgrading from a 26 gallon to a 110 gallon tank. I am thinking about recycling my old 26 gallon tank and using it as 1 of 2 things. Either a Frag Tank or a quarantine tank. Can I get some input on the pros and cons of each and some opinions on which would be better to go with and why. Also if anyone has any good designs I would appreciate it.

Being that you are increasing your volume by 300%, I'm thinking that your need for a QT will happen sooner than your need for a frag tank. Just my two cents.

A frag tank is a luxury for most of us. A QT is more important.

So what are the basics of setting up and using a QT?

My plan is to run a 20 gallon within my system that I can shut off on return and drain, use as a quarantine when needed but set up to do water changes from and obviously to increase water volume, I also have a 10g if I have to treat chemically
