I've had fresh water fish for many years now, but I am geting tired of not being able to buy the cool looking fish on the other side of the pet store. I've been intimidated of setting up my own salt water tank mostly due to lack of knowledge. I have a 75 gallon tank, but I am hesitant of halting my freshwater project for something that might not even work out. So, I've decided to use a 20 gallon tank to start my salt water experiment. I already have a bio wheel 330 filter, and I was told that if I put tile spacers in the back compartment along with charcoal filters in the front it would be alright for a salt water tank. I also have a power head to provide current. If I only want a few fish in there like a couple clowns, maybe a tang and lion,do I need more filtration? I also don't understand what kind of light I need and why I cant use my regular light. Final question, If I wanted to have a tank with starfish or crabs or annenomes what more do i need. Any help would be most welcome. Thanks for your time.
