i have been setting up fw tanks for about 8 years and was finally encouraged to set up sw by a friend. i have a 120g tank that used to be a red lobster aquarium with a chiller and abot 1 in glass. i have a few questions though seems how this is my first reef.
1. what lighting is required?
2. what PH do i need to start my cycling? mine is about 8.0-8.1
3. what salinity and temps are best for reefs?
4. how big of a protein skimmer will i need?
5. what is the best livestock for a beginner?
6. are bio balls and wet dry filter a bad way to go?
thanks for any answers! I will probably need more help as my journey goes on.
