				 Getting my feet wet 
 Hi everyone just a quick intro my name is David and I have decided to  take the plunge into the world of saltwater, and would like to start  with a FOWLR tank. And i have a few question's,  will 55 gallons be large enough for a beginner, will my marine-land 3  stage canister filter be enough. Live rock how much will i need, will i  need sand how much and what kind. Do i really need a sump or will  constant water changes suffice, what type of protein skimmer is best,  and how detailed of test kit will i need. Any and all input will be  greatly appreciated. Thank You... ... David |
