Well if you are thinking about doing a "nano" saltwater tank, then I strongly suggest
Nano-Reef.com - The source for nano reef aquarium information
I go there, its great!

"The New Marine Aquarium" by Michael Paletta

i would like to learn as much as i could so that i could have a sw tank that would be in the neighborhood of 75-150gal thats my future goal anyway..ive been reading up on sw tanks for a few months and just getting ideas and learning the ins and outs

conscientious marine aquarist by robert m Fenner is my favorite

Those two books mentioned are great, I'd pick them up. Plus reading through all of the stickies at the top of this SW forum if you haven't already. You can spend some time looking at the stores in your area and finding one that you trust...because that is also important.

Oh...and saving your pennies Darn expensive!

your off to the right start.. unlike me where i had a tank full of fish before deciding to start reading about saltwater tanks *crazysmil lol just take your time

 

[skratikans]

yeah this stuff is soo expensive...and when i see 125g and 90g tanks..and see people do their own pluming and sumps so to speak im thinking...wow..where do i learn how to do that! it be will a while and a ton of studying..but it would be amazing to have a sw tank that would look as good as the ones i see on this forum

its expensive but rewarding
