Aquarium Advice Freak
Hello I have been keeping FW fish for years now and I am looking for information on how much time and money converting an established FW tank to SW would cost(have to get the wifes approval ).
Here is some back ground on the tank:
25 gallon
Glass Top
Aquaclear 50 filter
It currently houses cichlids and has been running for about 4 years
With that out of the way here is some specific information I am looking for.
1) It obviously currently cycled but would it need to be recycled for a SW set up?
2)Is that filter usable in a SW aquarium? What else is needed that you don't usualy see in FW setups?
3) I would like this to be as simple to maintain as possible so would fish only be the easiest? The light on it I know is not suitable for coral so i'm really not interested in them.
4)What kind of decor and substrate is prefered?
5) Any kind of general price range top get up and running?
