Could I use my Refugium as a qt tank as well?

I have a proflex model 3 for my 72 gal Bowfront which is more than big enough for all I need. I saw something interesting in another hobbyis system. He had everything in the Refugium you're suppose to have but also had a clown fish in there. I was wondering is that a feasible option or not? Thanks guys

No....a quarantine tank is ultimately intended for treatment if the fish is sick and alot of treatments cant go into our reefs.

Just go to CL and get a used 20 gallon.
