I was just browsing this website ( I don't have a fish tank yet), but wouldn't a cleaner shrimp help control the algae - or would it not because it's on the bottom of the tank?

i'm replying to the algae comment. I was just browsing this website ( I don't have a fish tank yet), but wouldn't a cleaner shrimp help control the algae - or would it not because it's on the bottom of the tank?

honestly - i may go buy a 55 gal tank. I don't want to mess up anything and it'll be easier to maintain...after reading through several boards - there is MUCH room for error with 10-20 gals unless you're an expereinced soul...

the bad thing about the only place that i'm aware of in this town that is salt-water aquattics based, is that they discourage 10 gallons and aren't helpful unless interested in buying a 55 gal + (of course - more cash for them). So I need to go and ask for 5 gallons of freshwater and 5 gallons...

Yeah I may bust out two 20s at Barns & Noble and pick up something to get more educated. However, I've been getting alot of info here - thank you all so much for your patience. I'm so lost on the filters..."skimmer" thing, lighting - what's appropriate, what's not, etc.

@Debbie Wow you have those 5 fish in the ten gallon?? Very cool. So you say you change out the water once a week. Is that entirely?? Or just a portion? Please email me more info :notsure:

OK: I am thinking about starting something small - maybe a 20 gallon. I have been getting some recommendations to start out with a large one. I see people having 50 gal, 120gal, etc. So for the people who have ones that big, how much money have you poured into it????? I'm just curious? I DO...

ok. then how about this. can i do a couple of clowns and that's it? I know i have a lot of reading to do but maybe put in the anenomoe or a reef or whatever it's called that clowns dwell in? :notsure: Please excuse my ignorance. :help:

so for a 20 gallon, what is suggested? maybe a clown and puffer and that's it?

also, in a 20 gallon - wouuld a blue tank be comfy there? I know that they are timid. I just wondered if it would be too small for it?

so, do you think i should start with a minimum of maybe a 20 gallon? I just don't want to screw it up. Should I try a 20 gallon first and just keep the 10 as a freshwater?

I am thinking of converting my 10 Gallon Aquarium to a salt water aquarium. I know there isn't much room so I would probably like just two clowns & that's probably it. I don't want to overcrowd the tank as it would be a nano. And yes, it would be my first attempt. To have a couple clowns...
