EVIL DEVIL CLOWN

Hey guys-
I have an evil clown fish that was totally picking on my royal gramma, to the point that her eye is all messed up and she is generally a mess. Obviously, it's easier to catch him than her (as anyone who has ever tried to net a royal gramma knows) so we caught him and put him in the 'fuge. I really want to start up a smaller tank for him; and just put him in permanent time out.
So, here's my question: What's the quickest way to set up a small (10-12gal) tank for the clown? I don't want him living in the 'fuge for 6-8 weeks; I don't think it's good for him. I could use water from the current system, maybe mix it half and half, but everything else would be completely new (substrate, filter, etc).
What do you guys think I should do?
 
Put in a new small tank next to your current tank. Run it through the existing sump. This way you have just upped the size of the current tank.

I won a itty bitty baby Percula in a raffle a few months back, and he's been in one of my 5 gallon fuge's ever since, doing just fine. I leave him in there to fatten him up, since he was so tiny he'd have just gotten lost in my 150 had I put him in there immediately...
