Im excited, I just inherited a 15 gallon nano reef from a friend who cant take care of it. I have been into planted high tech tanks for awhile and never delved into reefs. Am I in for a rude awakening? I will post pics when i get it set up.
For me, freshwater to saltwater would be a transition to FO(WLR) and never straight towards a reef system. Just too many more variables and I wouldn't want to be spending money on corals and such without first getting down the basics of salt water. I'm guessing though that all the previous livestock is included already.
Just my personal opinion. I'm sure it can be done...the best of luck!
