I was pretty concerned when I found the Coral Beauty dead; and I'm also considering getting a Q-tank.
I don't see the problem with keeping the fish in a Q-tank for a couple of weeks, for observation before adding to your main tank. It wouldn't be much different than the LFS holding tanks. I figure a 20 gal. long will accommodate most fish I'm planning to purchase, and may be worth the investment when you consider the possibility of loosing all your livestock.

Yeah I think im going to do something like that. It sucks loosing so many fish practically all at once, in a matter of days.
