Alright, I'm taking the SW plunge. I have a 33 gallon tank I can spare and I have some getting started questions.
A) Lighting. Right now I just have a fluorescent tube. Will I have to spend a bundle on a PC fixture or can I make what I have work?
B) What all will I need in terms of filtration? I just bought a used protein skimmer from a friend. It's something like a Red Sea Prizm skimmer or something like that. He said it's rated at 90 gallons.
C) I have a 100w sub. heater on there right now. Is this enough?
D) Bubbler or no bubbler?
E) Anything else I will need in terms of equipment?
F) Any suggestions for fish I should start out with?
G) What is the difference between corals and live rock? What should I get?
H) What kind of substrate will I need?
I) Additional suggestions?
Thanks people!
