    Converting Fresh Water tank to marine setup

    in New to the Marine Aquaria Hobby

    Posted

    Thanks for kind inputs and idea....I will probably want to start off right....being with FW tank for years with monster fish....know the importance of good filtration and learning more on the SW addition of phosphate and calcium.....I do have quite a few bit of Marine pure media that I can transfer from my FW tank to SW.....however not sure if I need to pre-treat these media or I can simply put them into the SW tank?
    Thanks in advance. 

    What's Monster fish ? Anyway my bf used to have a freshwater tank which he covert to marine tank, just like you, soon he started hanging Reactors, skimmer, hang this Hang that, such an eyesore, in the end bought a new tank set with sump. I say, if possible do it write from the start get a tank with sump, it pays for itself in the Long run. However if you have to really settle for sumpless, must gets FOWLR: refractometer, hangon protein skimmer, wavemaker,liverock for denitrification , but if you don't mind the eyesore or have a place to hide marine blocks, they're really good for hosting beneficial bacterias, LPS/ soft coral: refractometer, liverock, hangon skimmer, phosban reactor, biopellet reactor, chiller , wavemaker, test kits : kH, pH, nitrate, phosphate at least . Good luck
