after randomly deciding to get a seahorse and then finding out how expensive the little buggers are, i've moved on. i still want to start a marine aquarium though, as all the bright fish and interesting critters seem to stay far away from my other fish-types.
i have questions for you, lots of them. ^^
- as a general rule, how much salt per gallon?
- what is the best substrate?
- does the tank need to be coral, or can it be densely planted with marine or silk plants, or set up with driftwood and rocks?
- what size tank is best suited for the critters i plan on buying (see below)?
i wasn't planning on buying fish, oh no. i have a lot of fish, my dad can't complain if i buy more water-critters that aren't fish ^^ i was thinking of buying a pair of Purple Nudibranch and a Chocolate Chip Starfish. i still need to do research on these critters, so any random input on them is very appreciated. i'd like to have the smallest tank possible, as i haven't got much space left. preferably something under 20 gallons. i understand this probably limits the critters i want, so please tell me. i wasn't planning on buying any fish, just the Nudibranch and Starfish. if they can't all fit, would a single star or Nudibranch fit in a 5/10/20 gallon tank? how many gallons of water would a single Nudibranch or Starfish need?
