Aquarium Advice Activist
I went into my lfs today and was given some advice that i dont know is really true. I currently have a freshwater setup: 40gal tank, 150w heater, 60gal whisper filter. i really want to change to saltwater but i don't know the proper equipment needed. I was told to get a magnum 350 canister filter, crushed coral for the substrate, a hydrometer, a sea clone 100 protein skimmer, and some instant ocean salt. I would really like to know if all this is true and if i need it all of need different brands.
I would also like some suggestions for compatible fish and also how many fish i can put into this take. I was thinking about some clowns, damsels, and dottybacks. I would like to have about 6-8 fish if that is possible and i plan to get some invertabre in the future. What r ur opinions of live rock, it seems very expensive so i may not be able to afford it. All help is appreciated. TIA.
