Would a 70L 2 foot tank be big enough for a marine tank with a few coral and fish? If it is what equipment would i need?

Have you bothered to read the sticky in the saltwater forum about starting a marine tank.....

yeap, just now. But it doesnt say if this tank would be big enough. ANd that is what i would like to know.

Anythings big enough for marine, it just depends what you put in it, what equipment you have, how much money you have, how much effort you put into it, and what you want it to look like.

Yes, it is big enough provided you set it up appropriately, but bear in mind that marine tanks need to be kept at a near constant temperature and salinity to do well, and the smaller the tank, the harder that is to do.

hey dixon yes it will be fine

ive go a 54 L tank and im looking after it well

ill be puting up pics after my last exam so next week

That size, I wouldn't bother making it a reef. Just make it a little FOWLR.

= Fish Only With Live Rock

the tank isnt fully stocked with corals mainly because im on a student budjet :oops: im slowly getting more tho

Did anything find its way to your place from the last shipment?

yup

i got one of the brains

its so cool ive been feeding it and my sun corals all day today

:bounce:

Wilson, which brain did you get? I'm picking up the red/orange one that was in the front left of the top tank on pay day... acro is in and looks great!

That open brain?

yeah - unless of course things have been moved around since I was there Sat morning....??

i got the green and orange/ red one in the top right tank

cool - there was a great selection I thought! What about the bubble?

I dont think i'm gunna be able to help myself, and will prob end up going in on Sat to get that bubble.

Stupid Xmas, i could so easily just blow all my pay on corals/fish but I can't this month

Even for a small tank, I don't think you'd get much change out of $1000.00, so think carefully before you start!

its only a 25cm cube

I setup my 3foot for about 1500.

dixion set up a 2 footer like mine

ill pm you the stuff i got...
