Default Quarantine tank
Thinkong of using this as a QT -http://www.aquariumsdirect.com/aquariums/other-shapes/currentaquapodaquarium24g allon.cfm is this a complete system? Would it be sufficient? When I'm done filling the tank I can take it to the office..

Pending size of fish I was told by my "LFS" that my 5 gallon hex cube would be big enough. It came with filter w/bio wheel and lil light, Picked it up at wally world for like $30.00, Now I have a Coral Banded Shrimp in there.

The 24 is ideal. If you have any big fish which I'm sure you probably will with the 220, it will provide them with some room.

i agree. i use a 20 long and that works out great. any of the bigger fish that i plan on having, i try to purchase at a small size. there cheaper and its fun to watch them grow!
