    Angler and Frog fish

    Well, maybe it would be better to get a separate smaller tank and put a frogfish in there by itself then...would it be okay as a loner?

    Protein skimmers and lighting

    That's the way I was thinking of going, it doesn't look all that hard. I just get a 20 gal tank, some silicone and super glue, cut the baffles to size, and place them where i want them with the super glue and silicone, then check for leaks right?

    Help! I'm a noob!

    So, from what I've gathered, I should go ahead and get a good skimmer, 2 power heads (1 for each side of the tank), the heater and airlines, set all that up and PRE- mix saltwater before I put it in the tank (R/O water only) and put in live rock as well. Let that cycle and the tank mature, and...

    Help! I'm a noob!

    Okay, so I have never had a saltwater system before, and there are so many options for filtration! Someone help me! I have heard wet/dry is good, but then I've heard canisters are great as well, so I just really have no clue where to start. I have a 55 gal and want to start w/ LOWR. Right now a...
