Finally decided to take the plunge into salt water aquariums. To begin, i have no fish experience. Have had exotic reptiles and amphibians forever though. Id like a nice display tank that looks good and has tons of color. To the point - Id like to buy my first set up. Ive got 3 options. 1. Buy everything new from the fish store and spend tons of money. 2. buy a used 7 gal amiracle complete kit with live sand and start small. 3. buy a running 55 gal with fish and beautiful corals for cheap from a friend in need.
Im leaning towards options 2 and 3 for the money savings. I can get the 7gal kit for $100, or i can get the running 55gal for $500. Which way should i go?
Thanks
