So I have had my fresh water tank going for about a year now. I have gotten tired of fresh water. There is only so much you can do. Something I have always dreamed of having is a salter water fish tank. Im going to start off with my 30g tank for about a year and see how that goes. I only have the tank right now. Im saving for everything I need. I went to the pet store and priced everything I needed, which shouldn't be more then $200 to get the tank ready for the fish. So wish me luck and if you have any idea's on cutting down the price for me. Im all ear's.

Welcome to the forums and to saltwater fish tanks! :-)

Here's an article I posted awhile back that has tons of great info for reading. I'd also suggest to take a long look at several nano tank build threads and find out exactly what your end goal is. http://www.etakc.com/t168-new-to-saltwater

Ask plenty of questions. Many people don't ask questions and only find that they should have after they have made mistakes and blown some money! Lol

Happy reefing!
