 Have read a bunch but still have a million questions
HI.... new to the whole saltwater thing. I have always done freshwater and am finally after years and years of dreaming of a saltwater tank am finally getting one as a b-day gift. Have the stand and hood w/halide lighting which I am refinishing. Hopefully the 135 gallon all glass tank will be brought home next week. I am going to use a sump underneath the tank so that's where I will start my million questions. Any suggestion as to size of container I need for a 135 gallon tank? Oh, yeah... it is going to be a reef/fish tank. I have also read a lot about chillers? which do I use, chiller or heater or both and if heater, where do i place it in tank, in sump or both?
Is a UV sterilizer necessary or just an added, good to have item?
Oh, and what size of heater(s) should I get?
Okay, that's enough to start. I am going to purchase those parts next.
Thanks in advance
