Hi everyone!
I am fixing to aquire a 56 gallong octagon aquarium from a neighbor. I have had many FW tanks in the past and have a good working knowledge of how they run and how to maintain them. BUT, my goal/hope is to convert this tank over to saltwater. I know little/nothing about saltwater so im going to do my research before i do anything. I need to know everything from filters to lighting. Im thinking about using a half live sand and half regular sand mixture as the substrate but i dont know how much to use because of the shape of the tank. i would like to have aninamae (probably just slaughtered that word) and fish in the aquarium.
Thanks a ton!
