![]() A currently have a FO salwater, and a freshwater, but i want a list of things i will need for a reef, instead of reading through 20 different articles. Once i get the stuff i need, THAN ill read some more, considering ive already read like 5 books, and 50 articles, but they all say something slightly different of what u need. So i need a list of it to help me get started. Thanx

![]() That's not what I am saying, I'm just suggesting that there is a lot of info to be found. In the end it really depends on what you want to do?
If you are just doing softies and no fish then PC lighting and no skimmer may work. If you are going full SPS and lots of fish then you would need Hallides, heavy skimming, zeovit and so forth. What are your plans? I'm sure eveyone would be happy to share their experiences. ![]()

![]() As i have said, i have read A LOT of material already, but i am looking for a start up list. Because everything i read basically says, u need this, but not this, but you should have it anyways cause it adds to the bubble effect. I wanna know what i actually NEED to start one successfully.

![]() Do you have any idea how big of tank you want to have....or better yet ...can afford to get? This will also determine what your going to need.

![]() I would read 5 more books and 50 more articles before any purchase is made. Sorry to disapoint you but keeping a reef is not the same as a fish only tank. There is so many more things to consider then salinity.

What they are saying is the truth. So many variables in this hobby. Depending on livestock plans, equipment availability & cash flow. Thanks
