Hi guys first post, new to the forum
I have three tanks in my room but one is empty, a 35 gal now i want to have my first go at a reef tank i want to slowly build it up and get some suitable inhabitants but i don't neccessarily need to think about possible fish yet? The final product of this tank will be mostly corals and a few fish and inverts but i want to know the type of lighting requirements and filtration requirements needed for success in the reef hobby
Now my 2nd tank is a 180 gal tropical tank with discus and other various species so I am very familiar with the bobby just looking to take the next step.
I have a canister filter that does 600 litres an hour but it's very efficent and does a very good job.
1. Do i have to upgrade?
2. Do i need powerheads?
I also have an LED lighting system but i highly doubt it'll be able to support corals
Look forward to a discussion and meeting some hobbyists like myself
