Need Help On Brand New Marine Set Up.

[bmussha]

I Need Do's And Donts With This Set Up.
I Currently Have a Nano Tank Set up which is Marine.
I have a tropical jewel vision 180, which im wanting to turn into marine, i would like a shopping list of what to buy and how much am i looking at? i am on a budget.
Any advise would be great, im living in england - so common brands would be helpful.

Hi mate

a quick reply on what you would need

Skimmer - Deltec or Aquamedic (MCE 600 or Biostar)
Powerheads - Tunze or Seio (20x tank volume)
Refractometer or Hydrometer
Test Kits (Ammonia, Nitrate, Nirtite, pH, Phos- Salifert are generally considered the best)
Thermometer (Digital are better)
Lighting (Dependant on what coral species you keep)
Liverock(20 - 30 Kg)
RO Water (DO NOT USE TAP WATER)
Mixture of Foods
Books
Nets
Salt (Instant OCean, kent Or Reef Cyrstals)
Water Change Equipment (Buckets, Hose, Water Containers,Spare Powerhead & Heater)

You are most of the way there then

I would recommend the Deltec over the Biostar any day
