Hello Everyone, so I currently do not have a saltwater tank and have been doing months of research on the type of fish and corals I will be starting with as a beginner along with equipment necessary, etc. I wanted to just going all out with the top of the line equipment for lighting, auto dosing, ATO, checking water parameters, and getting a Waterbox AIO 50.3 but my mind is telling me to start on the low end of the budget as a beginner.
Any suggestions on if I should just start off with a budget tank and what equipment I should start off with? The end result would be to house 2 clownfish, watchman goby, pistol shrimp, yellow clown goby, fire shrimp, orchid dottyback(maybe not since it’s semi-aggressive), bubble tip anemone, 3-4 types of zoanthids, And some lps corals along the way.
