Hello Forum,
I've recently been attracted to marine tanks, but more specifically reef tanks. Can you please point me toward equipment that I would need, and the fish and corals that I could keep? It is a 20 gallon high standard of 24" L x 16" H. Some of the things I have already while the FW was setup are a 100w Tetra heater and a 30-60 Gallon Tetra Whisper power filter. Would these two things be suitable to use for a reef tank? They are in good condition and work well. Another piece of equipment I use occasionally in my 55g planted is a Koralia Nano powerhead. Will I be able to use this in the reef tank I am planning or is it too weak? I already know the default light that came with the tank is too weak to use, and I am willing to purchase a new one. I'd rather go with T5's than MH because I wouldn't have to worry about temperature issues. Once again, please inform me of more equipment that I would need to start my reef tank. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
