Hi all, I joined this site a while ago, then discovered TASA, saw some serious planted aquariums and went for that, the amrine remained a dream, im busy breaking down the planted tank now and am wondering if i can convert this same tank into a marine tank.
It is an AZOO aquarium, 1000x450x450, not glass, its an acrylic tank on azoo cabinet.
Lighitng : 2 x T5 24watt tubes(6500K) AND 1 x 39watt PL Tube
filter : hang on filter
i have done some research and see that people always have sumps, i would not like to drill this tank and the space in the cabinet below is very little so i dont think a sump is going to work for me, is there any other way for me to do this??? will i be able to use the lighting i have at the moment?
I would like to have a marine tank with plenty live rock, a few fish and maybe a little coral(the easiest ones to keep).
Do you get hang on protein skimmers? or one that does not need a sump? what else do i need in terms on equipment???
what do i need to do to make this conversion possible, IS it POSSIBLE?
Any help wouold be greatly appreciated, i need all the advice and help i can get, want to do this properly.
Thank You
Nadeem
