    Small tanks aren't very forgiving when it comes to salt water. Of course they're cheaper to start up, but harder to maintain. Just a tip.

    I have two fresh water tanks. One is a 55gal and the other is a 20gal. I've been tempted to tear them both down a couple times. The 55 is a leftover from the cell phone store. We use to have a snapper and a painted. Alex (DRK CYDE) has the snapper. These are some shitty pictures, I need some better pictures.

    The 55gal has a painted turtle, med size Koi, an albino channel cat, pleco and a couple feeder gold fish that were suppose to be food for the painted but have grown up.

    I have a piece of driftwood for the turtle to chill on.


    This a picture of the 20gal as I was building it. Half of the tank is a terrarium for my three tree frogs and the other side for a Map turtle and a couple feeder gold fish. The turtle has a piece of limestone to bask on and get to the land area.

    I would love to start this as a hobby. Really want saltwater but should probably start off fresh first. Even just some coral and anemone or whatever to begin with.

    Corals are much harder than fish. They need more attention and better lighting. I had two tanks. One 55 gallon with a small stingray a few clowns and a violetin lion fish. Now it's all just sitting in my garage collecting dust. I also had a 65 gallon tank with a 2 ft American alligator that I just sold 2 months ago lol.

    Id tell you just to start with a salt tank, and go slow. Set it up and let it develop an eco system before putting fish in it. Lots of live rock and grow some algae. Make sure you get the right lights, and make sure you get a coral fish combo that works. I have ended up with fish that eat particular corals.


    crappy picture of mine.

    Here's a couple of my tanks from years past. I was pretty heavily into saltwater reefs for awhile, talk about moneypits.
