Starting up

I decided it was time for a change in my aquarium. I had fresh water tanks my whole life. I was like for 2010 why dont i try making saltwater tank. I made up my mind and hit the computer and started doing my research. I went through many different websites, just read and started learning about saltwater aquariums and their requirments. Enough of me talking now and onto my progress.

I started my tank on December 27, 2009.




So far I took apart my freshwater tank, cleaned the glass and the filters.





The items I need to begin my Saltwater tank:





-Live Sand


-Live Rock


-Protein Skimmer


-Filter


-Lighting System


-Sea Salt


-Hydrometer


-Ph Buffer


-Chemicals (will name them as I get them)

-Heater

-Powerhead or wave maker

-Water test kit





I am using a 75 gallon tank.

The tank in the process of being taken apart.








Took out everything, washed the tank down with a hose and scrubbed it with a sponge.
