Thinking of starting a salt tank

[mr fishy]

I have an empty 10 gallon tank I was wondering how hard it would be to start one what I would need and how much would it cost in general?

And what could I stock it with?

If you were to start a saltwater aquarium, I would recomend somthing larger then a 10 gallon. Smaller tank sizes are harder to care for then, say, a 55 gallon. Water paramaters such as salinity will fluctuate way more and if not fixed quickly, could kill your livestock.

Check craigslist. I have found great deals for many larger tanks. The larger the tank, the more options you have for livestock.

Type in aquarium, or fish tank to help filter what you are looking for. Check both the pet all for sale sections.

I did and found nothing 55+ for over 100$ but did find a 45gallon for 75$

I'd also say if you have the room for a larger tank, hit up craigslist. I've gotten all my tanks off craigslist.
