Well, I've been out of fish (except for a bettas) for about 5 years and in the past I've always done freshwater ... but I have always wanted a salt water tank. A few weeks ago, my friend drug me over to a cool fish store in town and I got looking at the fish and decided I missed them. So, I thought, I'll get a 20 gal and do some freshwater. Well, I'm weak ... and I'm now the owner of a 29 gal and I'm getting ready to do my first salt water tank. (I would have liked to have gone 55 gal, but I don't have the space ... grrrr.)
So far, I've got the tank, stand, pump, protien skimmer, substrate oh and salt. And now I'm in the poor house. LOL!
My plan is to get the water levels set, add some live rock and then ... critters. I'm not sure what all I want to have in there yet, but I'm sure I want easy, beginner critters and I want to have "safe critters" to start; I don't want anything that stings too badly.
So I'm looking for suggestions! Fish are pretty easy. I'm more concerened about finding some easy inverts.
Anyone? Anyone?
