Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hey Folks. I just bough a 90 gallon aquarium from a friend of mine and I'm planning on starting a saltwater fish only. I've got experience with freshwater tanks but zilch with saltwater.
So, here's my first question. The tank came with a Rena Filstar XP2. I looked online and found that this is for use in tanks up to 75 gallons. But then after doing some reading here it seems that Live Rock can take the place of some filtration if I'm not mistaken. So, I'm curious if I'll need to ditch the XP2 and get a filter large enough for my 90 gallon tank or if I can use the XP2 and just get some live rock to go with it. If that's the case then how much live rock will I need?
Still reading everything I can get my hands on before I even start with the trying to set it up and go through the cycling process. Thanks for any information you can provide.
