Looking to add another tank. More like coral QT but wanna have a rock on the side with anemones and a pair of clowns.
I’m considering between an AIO vs one with sump. Sump would be purely to house LR. For the AIO I’ll just stuff rubble in the back chambers
Was looking at the innovative marine 40L AIO vs their EXT
Thanks for input

How large does it need to be? Innovative Marine also makes this neat tank.

If you do that, it's not a quarantine tank anymore. You really need to go only fish or only inverts. If you mix them, it's just another fish/reef tank.

FWIW, I have a 20g AIO tank that I use for quarantining inverts. It's cycled, it has rocks, proper lighting, AWC etc. I treat it just like my regular tank, but there's no fish in it. Shrimp, urchins, corals, snails, crabs etc, but no fish. Also it's bare bottom...or should be bare bottom, but there's a lot of crud down there that I need to clean out.
