Wat tank size do u reccomend for some one who has never handled SW before, and wat fish?

the bigger the better but 180 litres is a nice beginning tank alot of people have rio 180s


and fish you can communal fish like clownfish there hardy! and a shoal of chromis which are hardy and good beginer fish, wrasses, dottybacks small peaceful fish!

or somethign liek a dwarf lionfish looks great but you can have small fish with it!


check out www.liveaquaria.com for info on fish and tank sizes etc.

fish mainly depend on what tank size you can afford/have the space for!

for tank size id say between 20-40 gallons, and for beginner fish http/www.liveaquaria.com/product/scateg.cfm?pCatId=1926 thats a good list

the bigger the better is not always true tho

Stick with Crabs Shrimp and Snails for now. One of my favorite websites is actually a seller. LiveAquaria

scarlet reef hermits, snails (dont buy the turbos tho), peppermint shrimp are pretty good scavengers

That is a pretty good website but one problem -I live in Canada I don't think they ship country to country.
