Hi all, I looking for some suggestion's . I have a 10 G tank with nothing in it and I was thinking I could maybe start some sort of marine tank. I already have a 65 Freshwater and I thought this might be a neat way to go. Unfortunately my knowledge is very limited in this area of fishkeeping. I am open to any idea's and thought's. Thanks for the help !! :idea2:

Looks nice , good job !! So 2-3 fish would be safe with the live rock? Do you the tank easy to maintain? How much light would you recommend?? Any Advice???

I have one cinnamon clown right now. I do water changes 2x a week at 20%. It is not horrible. But it would be alot easier with a bigger tank. If a heater goes out then you are up a creek without a paddle cause it dont take long ofr the water temp to change in a ten! So i try to keep my house temp pretty stable just incase some thing goes hay-wire!

I think a 10 is difficult to maintain. Your water is going to be difficult to keep stable without very frequent water changes. You also are going to have to be very careful with fish in that they can get big fast if you choose the wrong ones. You could use it for an invert tank. I think you could get some interesting shrimp and other inverts that could make a nice setup.
