Ok I think I am going to get a 30 gallon (Uk) about 35-40 US ? tank.
I can't get everything i need/want now, but I was hoping you guys could give me help!
An RO unit for the tank I want (15GPD ?) costs around $200 ?
I won't have much room are these units big??
Is there anyway to get by without a skimmer in the beginning? as it is just more expense!!
In the beginning I want to just have a lot (40lb??) of live rock ( and 50lb?? livesand) and the cool critters which come with it. When I get bored/more money, I intend to expand getting a fish or two. eg percula clown or royal gramma some pepermint shrimps hermits and snails (in case i did not get enough on the rock ).
Then if I want to get corals I will need a skimmer?? and obviously the corals themselves!
What exactly does a sump do?
Thankyou for the many questions and any advice to keep money down to a minimum with only strictly necesary things! I know it is an expensive hobby and will get things after time just the initial outlay I don't want to be too big!!
