So Ive been a aquarium enthusiast for about 3 years now, (fresh water)
Ive now decided to tank it to salt water..now that Ive donated my freshwater fish and everything I dont need. Within a few weeks im planning on starting from scratch, I plan on having a Fowlr around 80 - 100 gallon but i only have basic knowledge, I am currently in the works of creating a sump/refugim, (30G) and im just looking for some useful tips and advice, on these subjects
1. Drilling for Piping details (where to drill, and how big..)
2. best protein skimmer for this size.. and best price
3. Live rock.. whats the best way to do it, Buy dry/dead rock and then some cured live rock to seed? (who really wants to pay 7 buckaroos a lb if they dont have to)
4. what should my sump contain? (how many chambers and what they should host) I know im asking for alot, but i want to start cycling my live rock as soon as possible|
Thanks guys I will be posting photos of my progress
