how difficult is it to have a 10 or 15 gallon SW aquarium?
I understand how to filter a larger tank with LR and/or LS, but I do not know how to take care of a small SW tank?
Do you have to use very high quality expensive filtration equipment along with frequent water changes, and can correct stocking reduce the difficutly?
I wouldn't mind setting up a 15 but all the kits I have found for small tanks seem to cost about as much as setting up a large one. Is it possible to DIY and save money and still have a good working nanotank?
I could use LR/LS but I only have some pengium mini-filters and four 200gph powerheads atm. I do not own any protein skimmers or canister filters. I am curious about how much it would cost to set up a small SW tank and how I would do it.
... Thanks for any help.
