Not another tank setup thread lol...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My moms tank is a 40 gallon, half moon, was thinking it would be a lot cheaper to start as far as rock and water changes?

Yeah, you'd have to take out everything scrub the tank and bleach to be safe, then Rinse out a few times, add the sand you want with live rock a water and completely clean out all equipment. it's a lot of work but yes it's much cheaper.

So are you asking whether you should do a 40 gallon salty or your original new tank as a salty? If that's the question; hands down I'd go with your original idea, more water = more room for margin of error = learning without killing anything. Also you get to keep much more fish (and often more appealing ones too).
 
Looks sick! Congrats on the stand, looks great! Also; that's a lot of rock in the 40...
