Experienced freshwater, diving into saltwater

[reefiniteasy]

Hi everyone, I’m a teacher and this year I plan to add a nano reef to my elementary classroom. We already have a huge Turtle habitat, 65 gallon and 38 gallon freshwater aquariums but my students want the ocean. This will be an amazing experience and we cannot wait to get it all up and running. Expect lots of posts and tons of questions.

My first suggestion -- Smaller tank = faster changes.

If you want a successful tank, it'll behoove you to pick a larger tank. With that, of course, comes cost... But i would recommend a 40g breeder (36x18x18) or at the least a 20g Long aquarium.
