Having a horrible time trying to decide on which tank to use.
I have a 5G Marineland, a 2.5G Aqueon bowfront, and a Fluval Chi (lid should be in the mail today, what is the suitability for those? Also a 16G bowfront and a 35G JEBO (the model is "new r375"), I am having a really hard time deciding which FW to break down and move to SW. I was hoping to find a great deal on a all in one tank made for SW but not yet.
All the tanks have sort of important stuff in them and which I had been working on for 6 months to a year. BUT I have to downsize some tanks...hasn't been happening as of yet(!!!), but after I decide on the SW tank it should get easier. lol.
So there is no light suitable for SW right now in my possession. I will need to do something temporary or retrofit.
There is a Coralife 30" T5HO dual light with a 10K and a actinic which could work on the 37G, available for $40, and only 2 months old.
If that light would be a good base for some stuff then the 35G JEBO sounds like it is in the running. Plus I am picking up about 60 lbs of dry coral rock today for either free or $10-20.
The possible benefit of a 5G tank is that it would be economical and simple for pwc, and ???, any other reasons??? Though only a little types of creatures, like inverts would be able to be in there.
All I need after the light is sand and a refractometer. And I can be up and running a cycle.
Help me decide!!! Give me the + and - to help me. I can always go bigger for sure!
