Ive been thinking about a salt tank for awhile now, but before I decide to invest all the money involved in converting my 120 gallon tank, Ive decided to try it on a smaller scale first.
I know that bigger is better, but i dont wanna dump all that money in to something I may not be able to handle. So what I'd like to know for starters is simply what I need to run a 10g tank.
Obviously I need to get water and salt. Also a substrate, im looking at a bag or two of live sand. I plan on ordering some live rock, is it 1lb per gallon? After that though im stumped. I dont need a skimmer for such a small tank, or a sump, correct? But I will need a powerhead(s), right?
Basically Id like someone to hold my hand and show me some links of what exactly I need. And instead of starting another thread im going to ask this here as well. If I decided to go forward an convert my larger tank over, does this SUMP FOR 200 GALLON AQUARIUM WITH SKIMMER COMBO - (eBay item 230191227614 end time Nov-18-07 18:46:15 PST) seem like a decent deal, or is it garbage?
Its 2am so Im sure I probabally forgot alot of my questions so expect more to come! ;D
