hanging my freshwater to saltwater HELP

[RuGlu6]

I am in port moody, you are welcome to come over and learn from my mistakes LOL.

It's easy ... just get some salt, mix it, add about $5000 and bang you have a reef tank !
...Just Kidding.
There is a lot of info for you to consume.



You will need: a skimmer , lights, rock, some live sand or bare bottom is also an option. you can use fluval for carbon and phosphate removal media (Without sponges (!), return pump, internal flow powerheads, sump, timer or two, overflow box, salt, hydrometer.

If you decide to go with out a sump then you can skip return pump, sump and overflow box, but then you will need a hang on the back skimmer and other then Deltec MCE-600 i am unaware of any that will do half decent job.
