I currently have a 30 gallon freshwater tank with breeding convicts in it. Now I am going to transform this tank into a FO or FOWLR tak, but I am CLUELESS. Here is a little info on my tank: It is a 29 gallon tank, It currently has pool filter sand in it. I want to get a buffering sand to get a steady PH. It now has a cruddy heater on it, and I will get a new visitherm stealth. The filter is a small Bio-Wheel, and I am debating on getting an Aquaclear. I also want to get a powerhead for the tank as well as new lighting for when I make the switch. Now to the questions:
1. Can I use my freshwater to skip waiting around for my tank to cycle?
2. Can you give me some stocking suggestions? (All I know is that I want a clownfish:mrgreen: lol)
3. How do you mix saltwater?
4. What should my cleanup crew be?
5. What type of lighting should I get if I want to do Live Rock?
6. Can I use a VHO bulb in my flourescent light fixture?
7. Or should I just use a high power flourescent?
8. Should I get a protein skimmer?
9. How many GPH should my powerhead be?
Thats all I can think of for now, I may have some more questions later. I know its alot, but like I said im completely new to this saltwater, but not new to fishkeeping.
