Hello there, I have done saltwater in the past i did it for about two years and then had to break it down because i moved. I havent kept saltwater in about 3-4 years but i would know what i was doing if i started it again. I keep trying to stick with the freshwater but its so hard because nothing quite matches in color. If i went back, and this i went with a much smaller tank whats the longest i could be away from home before the evaporation became a problem, thats the only problem i can actually forsee with a smaller tank. When i had a 55 gallon i could be away for weeks at a time and come back and find everything as i left it, save a little algae problem.
Anyone have experience with small saltwater tanks. I have heard of 1 gallon tanks but im not prepared to do that , i would have to be home everyday to top it off, by the way i live in fl but my air conditoner runs almost constant so i do lose water in my tanks. Im looking for anyone who has done 5 gallon to 30 gallon saltwater tank. Im not prepared to go any higher....personally i prefer smaller tanks. Is there any around the evaporation? The ammonia wont be a problem because i never stock high anyway.
