I am clueless about SW and cannot say that I have really mastered FW either. Not at all clueless about freshwater but I learn something new almost every day. I am embarking on an adventure into the dark side myself because my wife wants dwarf seahorses and they are purely saltwater fish.

first advice, check your confidence. even people with 30 years of experience, rarely claim to have mastered the hobby.

Check out the journal,s in the marine section, thats what i did when i first went saltwater, i have done a journal as well, its called 'no going back' it shows everything i used and how i did things, i think i also done an equipment and price list of everything i brought on there, here is a word of warning though, the salty side is Very expensive when compared to freshwater.
