Hi there all,
I have a 200 litre Jewel tank which i have been using as like a back up tank to my large tank, but now all my fish are living happly in the one tank i am thinking about converting this tank to a marine set up. The tank is 3 1/2 foot by 2 foot by 2 foot so it small, but quite a nice size. I have got the Jewel filter running in it as well as an Ehiem 2218 external filter running as well. I have 300 watt heater aswell as 2 air stones in the tank.
How easy would it be to convert this to marine, what extra thing would i need to buy, can i buy the salted water and if so where from as fish shops in my area are not that great, how much live rock could i have with the tank and how many fish could i put in there? I have very young children who love the Finding Nemo film and one lfs has a tank set up with all the fish from the film in it, would those fish be ok to be kept in this tank?
