Hello everyone,
Hoping to be getting a Fluval Evo 13.5 which I can’t wait to get started with ! After having tropical fish tanks for some while now I’m taking the jump into the saltwater world !!
So I just wondered if there’s any advice,tips or anything I need to know or need to get that all your “beginners guide “videos forget to mention !
Any advice tips etc welcome !
I’m wanting to keep my tank Fairly standard and simple but still as impressive as possible for now !
I look forward to hearing from you all !
Cheers All !

BRS does a really great series of "5 minute guides" that cover all of the basics ... you can find them all on YouTube

One piece of advice that isn't in any of the standard guides: if you're married, open a new credit card account to use for this "hobby" and don't tell your spouse about it! If you think I'm kidding, give it a couple months!
Lol, that's a good one :)

Don't under estimate importance of gas exchange and extra dissolved 02 in the water.

Start reading a thread where title gets your attention then go to bottom of page and read another thread,do this each day and learn and research from others successes/failures.

Good luck and hope you and your family get great enjoyment from your tank ^_^
