I recently purchased a regular 29gal tank and was going to raise some cichlids when i changed my mind and now wanting to start a FOWLR tank. I already have a HOB marineland emperor 280, 100w heater and a max jet 900. I understand the cycling process on a FW system and from my understanding its pretty much the same on SW ...but i have acouple of questions if any1 can steer me in the right direction
#1 would my hob filter be sufficient for acouple of fish (1-2 clowns, damsel,goby, cardinal) and acouple of crabs/snails/shrimp?? or do i need a refu/sump system??
#2 could i cycle the tank out with the equipment i have and NO reef lighting system??
#3 any thoughts on the marineland reef capable LED system?? my budget is about $175...max $200 for a lighting system
Thanx for any help any1 can give me
BTW....i plan on getting some softies maybe a year or so down the line
