Howdy everyone!

I've had numerous freshwater tanks before and I'm getting ready to try a
saltwater setup (probably fish only) for the first time. What general
recommendations can anyone give me? I want a good size tank (anywhere
between 55 and 180 gallon). What's the best filter system to use? Anyone
had a do-it-yourself wet/dry system? Is it worth my time? How about live
rock, crushed coral, etc? Is there an all inclusive list somewhere that
details everything I will need?

Thanks,

Andy

Go Here. http://saltaquarium.about.com/

Read the Essentials. Read as much as possible about marine setups.
Above all DO NOT RUSH!! Take it slowly because i don't think your tank
will cycle in under 90 days no matter what your tests say. Subscribe to
this news group as well- rec.aquaria.marine.reefs.
