Thank you manbeast. Its a 45ish tank i believe. I took as much water as I could. I put all of the live rock in a tupperware container, filled it with the tank water. Put the Yellow Tang in a 5 gallon bucket, and the two Black Clowns in a seperate bucket. The live rock had alot of algae? on...

Update. I have been urged to keep the salt water fish. Should i consider going through with it? How would I take down, transport, and set up? Should save as much water as possible? To make it easier on the stock? I need everyones opinion.

Thanks for the replies, Im just nervous about it, only because it is a saltwater tank.

I found a great deal, an 80ish gallon corner tank, with stand, light, everything for 50$. The problem is that I dont deal with salt, im a fresh kind of person. But I still want the whole set up to switch over or to just flip. So my problem is, there is some fish in there, the lady has no...

How is your DIY set up?

It would be for my 20 long, I have no idea what would be an appropriate flow rate for my aquarium. As it is right now I wouldnt say it's heavily planted, but I have some Java Moss, Xmas Moss, Dwarf Grass, 8 stems of Anacharis, and 4 stems of Water Wisteria.

Lets say i run it for 8 hours a day, how long will it last me?
