Greenteam Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 So at work we had a tenant leave our plaza and since the owner knew I enjoy fish/shrimp hobby he gifted me some pieces a 55g saltwater tank. I can still get things like the tank, stand, and lights once I'm ready but this is what I took for now. My question is can I use this wet/dry sump on a smaller tank? How do I clean off the salt buildup since I just did a light rinse with the hose? Also since I never did saltwater would you guys say it's just too much trouble to try?

metageologist Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Nice find. You can clean the scale off with vinegar. As for trouble this depends on your level of patience and commitment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenteam Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Im in no rush lol I can totally wait and see how things go. What size tank are you planing on doing? From the reading I been doing I was thinking I could do a 20 long with a soft corals since they seem to be easier and then add a gobby & shrimp pair since they look so cool living in the same den lol.

featherblue Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Sw is totally worth it! I love my reef. A bit of effort to set up and get running balanced; but well worth tge effort! (And not really more difficult than soft water shrimp) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
