Read TONS more before buying anything else, or you will be kissing a heck of a lot more than $30 down the drain.

Most people don't use CC anymore because it traps too much detrius and creates nitrates down the road. Some say the same is said for an aragonite sand bed, but takes longer.

You will need 30-45lbs of live rock in your tank, and you need to research lighting needs for various animals you want to keep.

Research, research, research. Then buy.
