Hi..im new to this forum and new to the saltwater part of aquariums...Im switching from fresh/brackish water to saltwater and had a few question in starting my new adventure with saltwater tanks....The tank that i have is a glass 50 gal corner pentagon...i have 2 eheim 2213 canister filters which are a pain and would like to get rid of one...and a brand new seaclone 100 protein skimmer..1.)do u think 1 canister filter and the protein skimmer would be enough..and what would i need to do to the filter since i used it with the fresh/brackish water setup?
2.)How much sand should i put in my tank or what types of substrate should i use that would go with the sand?
3.)im going to use distilled water for the tank...is that good with instant ocean?
The tank is mostly gonna be fish,(2-4 percula clown, some kind of a wrasse?,mandarin goby, powder tang if i could get away with it,), i was thinking about getting maybe 25 of live rock and adding some neat coral and anything else..Any info would be great from anyone..thanks alot!
