Aquarium Advice Newbie
My name is Aaron and I have had a fish tank in my home since I was around 5 years old. I am now 35 but I still just have one small tank. My son and I really just enjoy the messing with the fish... Along with our snake, cat, and two dogs
Anyway... My primary reason for getting on this site is to learn more about managing a larger fish tank.. We have just took a big step up and purchased a 200 Gal tank with a 35 Gal Sump... It was in an office complex and we got a great deal. I have picked up everything at this point but the tank and I am getting that on Friday.. So I am looking everywhere for ideas on filter media, etc so that I can get ready.. We are also going to convert our old tank once we have this one setup to a saltwater tank or Reef Tank.. I was really thinking about using the 200 Gal tank as a saltwater tank but from speaking with local fish shop they suggested I start small and learn a bit more before I dive into that one
Anyway.. Looking for any ideas and will be searching the site as well to get as much info as possible before I start putting water in the tank
