A 3" Sailfin Tang in a 10-gallon tank compared to a 3" Ocellaris Clownfish all of a sudden size isn't the concern. My point is that a 10-gallon is not suitable for all fish- even if they are small. A 20-gallon or a 40-gallon might be a better choice. For bigger fish like large Angelfish, Butterflyfish, Tangs, etc an even bigger quarantine tank may be needed.
Ah ok. I only asked cause I am setting up a 10g QT as well. My DT is only 54g though so I won't be getting any big angels or any tangs at all. I guess everything would be considered small as long as I don't get full grown fish. Biggest fish I could see being in QT is 1.5"-2" at the most. Want to get small fish so I can see them grow.
