Hi guys and girl I’m after some advice.
Many many moons ago I attempted a nano marine tank but unfortunately did not end to well.
Iv now got a lot more time on my hands and I’m looking to start again.
I have a few questions.
Would I be better getting a all in one tank?
Or
build one with an external sump
I’ll be looking for something around 190/200l tank. With out sump Is that big enough? Or shall I look for something along the lines of a 300l if not doing external sump.
Or shall I go 200l and then an external sump
Under the tank.
Ideally I’m looking at 3/3.5f rectangle tank or
A corner tank.
Could some one please do me a check list of what I would need as Iv been trying to learn on the web but so many sites say different things. Ie some say you don’t need a protein skimmer but some do
ImTrying to do my research first before jumping in and buying stuff I don’t need
( kinda a big habit I have lol )
Iv not got the money to go all out on it and I don’t mind getting bits slowly as that would give me more time to prepare and learn.
I also don’t mind used bits.
If there is any good sites the people in the uk use please could you also list them.
Thanks in advance
