Need a cheap quarantine tank

Oh no! I have ick and I need to let my tank go fishless for six weeks.

My three fish need I'd say a 20 - 30 gallon for quarantine/medication.

Does anyone have just the tank only for sale?

So there we have it folks, defective IO indeed!

OK, just talked to J&Ls.

Well it was more like 40% of the tank, but there was still water left in the sumps, so it was more like maybe 25% water change of the total water. And the water was aged, for at least 24 hours.
