I am really really new to saltwater so instead of buying a saltwater kit/tank, what is the bare minimum recommended equipment and supplies needed to start a saltwater tank with just saltwater fish. (no coral or live rock yet)
so far I think I know I need:
thermometer-is watts per gallon same as freshwater tank?
filter-is it possible to just use a canister filter?
water-salt, and the tester to test the amount of salinity
substrate-what kind is best? sand?
anything else?
this would probably be for a 30-50 gallon tank
