FRESH WATER meets SALT WATER Fish

I set up a 15gal saltwater tank for fresh water fish And a few saltwater fish.

On the fresh water fish side I have Mollies, Guppies, Platys and Green swordtails.

On the saltwater side I have Zebra blennies, Marble blennies, rock blennies.

The salinity is at 1.023 that makes it a completely saltwater tank.

I have live algae rock from the ocean ,artificial coral and coral rubble. ocean sand for substrate.

artificial sea fan tree lg. so the blennies can climb on it and get out of the water.

They are all eating a marine fish diet. Most of all they are all getting along.

Blennies usualy fight with each other, They are not doing that in this tank.

The filter is a aquaflo canister filter set up for a saltwater tank.

I built a plexyglass top hinged lid. It has lots of small holes in the top for better gas and air exchange.

it has a air pump and a lg.sponge filter as the second filter. I always use two min. filters on salt.

The tank has had the fish in it for two months now and is just fine.

This is the tank I put the fish in that had wasting disease. The fish is completely normal now.

Sounds nice. Did you have to acclimate the fw fish much?

I breed mollies and some swords in saltwater. I had to change the guppies and platys over a month period of time.
