Small SW set-up with clowns

[wickedmax]

Alright, I want to get a small fish tank, and I would love to make it SW if I can swing it. Im leaning towards a 10-15 gallon tank (probably the Eclipse12) And all I really want to have in it are two clowns, a black percula and a true percula....

Now, Im sure most of you are laughing at me b/c of my desire for such a small tank but Would it really be that difficult for a newbie to control a small saltwater tank with 2 fish and no reef in it?

I just love the look of the clowns, and I could give them some fake plants and what not to swim about in.

Small tanks are harder to keep table than bigger tanks. Having said that, if you can have the tank well covered, and are willing to monitor it daily to being with, then a 15 is do-able. Wanting a small bio-load is great, since the tank will be able to support 2 perculas pretty easily.

I would strongly encourage you to GO SLOWLY. Set the tank up with water, and some base rock and substrate. Cycle it--learn to test, learn to topoff for evaporation, get it stable. Going slowly, and not rushing to add the fish will drastically improve it, and your, chance for success.
