Aquarium Advice Freak
First off, I work at my LFS and can get any tank under 75g for less than $100 new. I can get everything at list price, so after realizing this, I've decided its time for a reef tank.
I'm looking for the best tank size to start off with under 50g, I'm also planning on getting it predrilled and building my own sump. I'm also planning on building my stand and hood which will house 1-2 250MH fixtures which I already have lying around.
I've pretty much mastered freshwater and I feel its time for something more. I love maintaining tanks, so the increased workload is no problem at all.
The manager/saltwater guy I work with said a 40 breeder wouldnt be a bad idea, but I just wanted to get other's opinions.
I'm gunna need a tank to fit under the display tank as well, so reccomendations are welcome.
Any starter tips would be great as well, such as equipment you really should from the get-go. I'm already looking for protein skimmers and a powerhead or two, but I want to find out what tank I'll be going with first before I finalize those decisisons.
TIA!
