Originally Posted by Mr_X how many corals do you want? i have 75 different colonies in my 195, and i wish i had more space to add a few more. with a 28 gallon tank, you don't have many choices. I know that i dont want any huge corals for a fact. I havent specifically chosen my coral yet tho.

Heck, buy a extremely strong cage to completely encase your A/C unit (Yes, even underground) and padlock it with the strongest padlock you can afford. Or encase it in concrete, either one. We badly need economic reform . Things have gotten this extreme in the last few years, and i know they was...

Oh, and I found my saltwater aquarium book, its Salt-Water Aquariums by Barbra S. Waters and John Waters. Copyrighted in 1967.

I was looking at aquariums for my new tank on http://www.glasscages.com/ and i found one listed as 70 Wide, yet i have no clue what that means. The dimensions of it is 48 x 24 x 13 (length X width X height). How many gallons would it approx. hold?

I am still considering a Nano tank because i dont want anything massive in the tank either. I am also considering getting a slightly bigger tank, somewhere around 40-50 gallons.

Originally Posted by subielover Well, you wouldn't want to put everything in right away. I think Mr. X was referring to equipment. Ah, ok. Yea because the tank has to go through its Ammonia-Nitrite-Nitrate cycle (Yes, i know a few things lol). I heard that live rock helps alot during that time.
