Finally I have found out that my hubby will be more willing to let me get a really big tank (150+ gal) if it is a salt water. I do have at least 6 months before we would move to a home that could handle a tank that big. Before I comitt my 29 gal to SW (not sure SW is for me yet) I thought maybe I could set the 6 gal Eclipse up with some LR, LS maybe a goby and a shrimp or two.
I really have no real clue about SW, but think I have the FW pretty much down.
So... What do I need to do to get a 6 gal SW?
1) what do I need to buy? what quanties of LR and LS?
2) water temp normally is 75ish, do I need a heater? What size heater for a tank this small?
3) How does cycling differ from fresh water? Can I buy bacteria like I can for FW?
4) What are the parameters for what I am hoping to do?
EEK, help! 8O
