Yeah mate, in temperate waters, so can get some of the reef sharks, and larger pelagic species too.

yea, that would be a pretty cool tank. would definetly need a sawfish tho

its really not any more difficult than freshwater. ive been doing both for years and personally do not skim my tanks (i keep alot of filterfeeding inverts and dont want to remove any organics they might possibly need for survival). the only difference is mixing salt for water changes
