I am getting a 10 gallon quarantine tank what do i need in it to keep the fish alive im going to start putting all my new fish in it before they hit the main tank. and should i just use some water from the main tank with some lil pieces live rock.

At a minimum, you need a heater and filter. You also need to cycle the tank just as you would any other before adding fish. For a quarantine tank, you can get away with no skimmer. In fact, if you were medicating the fish in there you would not want a skimmer running as it would skim out the meds. If you have some pieces of live rock you can put in there, that would be great too.

Quarantine Tank Setup will give you a good idea of what you need.
