Started a ten gallon salt water today, just to dabble in it before I take my 55gal over to salt! Little nervous but so excited to just have an empty saltwater tank on my dresser lol
10gal Salt water

Go heavy on the pics and update! One great thing about saltwater is even a 10 gallon can be monster.
Good luck, I've heard the smaller the SW tank the more difficult it is to balance. I've thought of doing a 30ish gallon SW tank but was turned off at the idea when I researched that it's just easier to do a 50+ setup. Keep us updated though!

Ive heard that too! I know its true with freshwater from experience as my 55 is much easier than the 10 gallon was! I figure learning hard is good though!
Any suggestions on fish (preferably not really expensive ones) are much appreciated. I am thinking of starting off with some small crustacians and maybe a fish.
Check out the ghetto lights! Throwing some live rock in tommorow, think I could getaway with some crabs or shrimp tommorow?
Must be a cell phone picture (because its small).enwelz;3864807; said:Check out the ghetto lights! Throwing some live rock in tommorow, think I could getaway with some crabs or shrimp tommorow?
I would start with maybe a green/blue chromis or 3, possibly a couple of damsels. These fish average ~$3-$4.
I would wait for the tank to cycle though, one day is NOT long enough.

Yea it the pic is from a cell phone but it was way bigger than that, I just must have posted it wrong, I'll figure the next one out!
