Tank Aquarium Marine
setting up a marine tank using a 60 litre (16 gallon) aquarium?
i want to turn my 60 litre tank into a marine aquarium. what hard ware and other products do i need to do this? is lighting important (i don't plan to have coral just live rock). would you recommend a protein skimmer for this size tank? how many pumps would i need?
If you do not want coral but you want live rock then you will have a FOWLR setup.
There are 3 types of Marine aquarium:
FO (Fish Only)
FOWLR (Fish Only with Live Rock)
REEF (Reef Aquarium)
Things You Will Need:
Coral Sand (To Raise the pH):
Live Rock:
External Filter (internal are not adequate for marine tanks):
Protein Skimmer:
Marine Salt:
Fake Corals and other deco:
Normal Aquarium Lighting:
Air Pump (for mixing salt in the bucket)
Heater:
Hydrometer:
You only need high output lighting if you have corals and other REEF animals,
I would Recommend a Protein Skimmer as it will keep your tank much cleaner and help with water quality, but they are NOT Essential for a FOWLR setup like they are REEF aquariums, so its up to you on that one.
Keep the Temp a 75F or 24C
Keep the SP (Specific Gravity) from 1.020 - 1.025
Fish Wise for that size tank I would go for things like
Clownfish (Species of your choice but DON'T mix species!)
Firefish Gobies
Pajama Cardinalfishes:
Sand Sifting Gobies:
Avoid Damsels as they are Very Aggressive:
Skunk Cleaner Shrimp:
Turbo Snail etc...
Hope this of some help!
Happy Marine Fishkeeping
