Hello all, so I know nobody likes a newbie but please go easy on me! I'm genuinely doing my best and trying to gather as much information as possible, I'm currently at the stage where I'm ready to go and buy all the set up- but am I going for the right things?
A friend of mine has given me a list of things he says I will need, so I'm working through it now. I'm looking to set up a 4 foot aquarium, but could end up with a 5 foot.
Coral Sand - 7kg
300Watt Heater
Live Rock - 5kg to start with
Instant Ocean, Salt - 8kg
Hygrometer or Refractometer
Colony, instant cycle
Digital thermometer
Nitrate testing kit
Wave maker
External filter - now this is where I'm stuck, I need help choosing! I'm not entirely sure which are suitable.
And loads of suction cups... wire tidies.
Is there anything I have missed, or anything that I need to know?
