hey i have kept small freshwater tanks for a few years now and recently upgraded to a 12 gallon from a 6 on one of my tanks, but anyway the point is i have a empty 6 gallon eclipse system 6 in my closet. Since i had the tank i was hoping to turn it into a small nano saltwater reef. I would like to keep live rock/sand and a feather duster, with some small corals like zoos along with a few small inverts.
what do i need to do to convert this tank to saltwater? Does anybody know any info on some lighting mods for this specific tank? I know i'll need some type of powerhead and a small heater but im totally ignorant about his stuff so can u tell what will fit and where to put it and how powerful the rating needs to be? Do i need to take out the old filter since i'll be using live rock cause that would add more room for lighting mods or is it still benficial to have in there? I'm not trying to be too fancy here i trying to this if its not too outrageous money wise to convert otherwise i would just buy a nano cube but i would prefer to use this tank as the idea of modding stuff is always appealing. Thanks for ur help!and replies i know im a noob.
