Welcome to the world of reefing!

The world you have known is not a thing of the past.

I had 30 years of FW and contemplated SW for about 10 more before I started my first 10 gal SW tank.

Now look at where I am?? every spare moment is working wth the damn fishies.


Best to start your first tank from scratch, this way you can learn and enjoy the pitfalls of the aquarium, and you will be better prepared if issues arrive.

I wish to offer you any support, and information as needed, as well most of the members of this forum.

As a LFS in Edmonton, I can also offer you free delivery (As long as you meet up with my truck) in Bonnyvill as I have visits twice a week with my outer company in town.

Ugh. Yeah trust me, if I could have the clearance for a nice 7 footer I would scoop up one of those in a heartbeat but 6 is my tops.

The thing about the potential BV tank is it will be a bow front, which is what I orignally wanted. I was just thinking of "settling" for a standard if the price is right.

im going to go the opposite route and say that buying a used set up can save huge cash if you look for the right one, ive moved probably a dozen setups and even one a 12hr trip in winter and ive lost nothing but a few fish and some corals and alot of them ive lost nothing.

that set up is def not worth 3000 but there are some good ones for alot less i personally wouldnt pay more than a 1000 for that particular set up.


buyiing all new is costly so if your starting fresh try to buy secondhand or lightly used equipment.


my lights alone for my tank cost more than what i paid for the whole set up and i lost nothing in the transfer and waited for a healthy good deal..... cheers
