[AquaticLife] Hospital Tank
I keep fish in my 10G hospital, but I also have a spare 20G I keep in the closet empty to use when required. Also a 5G bucket that I use in a pinch with filter and heater.
The fish in the 10G hospital tank might be attack victims, tiny fry, juvenile hybrids created in spite of my best efforts at prevention, quarantined new purchases or fish waiting to go to auction.

That way it is always cycled and ready to go. Others use a sponge filter in their main tank. Dana Rasmussen Seattle
