Mike
First and foremost, you need to get a really good book on reef tanks and read it. Then read it again. your best bet is once you are ready to set up the tank, post a question or 2 and wait for a response. Look for the most consistent answer in the responses. There are some in here that do know a lot, some who like to ask questions and some who like to have fun at others expense. But they all have different areas of expertise and can help you with your tank. Second: Brand names for various equipment is usually an opinion as to who has a better product, again, look for the most consistent answer. Third: Look to other sources for information, Newsgroups are o.k, but there are plenty of other forums that are much better in getting your questions answered Good Luck mike d. wrote: I would like to enter into a correspondence with someone who is skilled with keeping marine tanks and marine creatures . I am experienced with freshwater, but I have only had one tank of sal****er, and my skills are in need of some improvement. particularly setting up tank with wet-dry filter, sump, skimmers, etcetera, and what types and brands of equipment/materials to use. If anyone can or will help, please reply here and I will contact you. Thanks much, mike. |
