Is this a good saltwater aquarium setup? And also, what’s a good stock list?
I already own a 55 gallon fish tank with a stand. I haven’t ordered anything yet, but I have came up with a list of all the things I plan on getting. Please tell me any knowledge you have of any of the items or if you suggest something different.
Item list-
-55 gallon glass fish tank
-Stand fitted for tank
-Marineland Magnum Canister Filter 350 Pro
-SeaClone Protein Skimmer SCPS 100
-Penguin Powerhead Model 550 x 2
-Hydor Theo Heater 200 watt x 2
-Portable Refractometer
-Instant Ocean Reef Crystals Synthetic Sea Salt 150 gallon bucket
-Thermometer
-Ocean Direct Caribbean Live Sand 60lb
Looking for a good test kit also.
As for the things i plan on putting into the tank i’m not sure of. I want to add at least 60 pound of live rock for filtration. The only fish I have a strong desire to add to the tank is a Ocellaris Clownfish. Could someone please come up with a list of tank mates i can add in with my 3-4 Clownfish?
Thanks!
How much would a nano reef setup generally cost?
I have a lot of experience with keeping freshwater/brackish fish, but don’t have the money to buy a huge 120 gal tank for any large saltwater fish.. so then i discovered nano tanks, im pretty sure i would be able to handle something like this but i need to know how much they cost to set up
I plan on getting a 10 gal tank for the set up any advise on a nice brand for someone on a budget?
Any one with nano experience please help/ give advise, detailed answers would be appreciated :]
