I have a 150 gallon tank, and stand that i just bought this weekend. It measures 48"wideX24"deepX30"tall. Not my fist choice as id rather have a long tank, but for a fist Saltwater tank i think this will be great! I do not have anything else. Just a tank and stand.
I need to get a hood, lights and other equipment. This is where i am confused.
I have done enough reading that i know i need special lights, Protein skimmer, Refuge (still fuzzy on this), heater, and power heads??
Ive also seen references to CO2? Do i need to supply CO2 to the aquarium?
I know that we would like to have Fish from the film Finding Nemo, corals, anemones.
It will be sometime before i can set the tank up because i still need to get all the equipment. I have read that you should get equipment that is overrated for what you have in the event that you may want to set up a larger tank. Is double what i have too much? I also know that i want to get good equipment that will last. I want to go into the hobby the right way. So i have plenty of time to keep reading up on how to do things right.
Any help unconfusing me would be great:D
