Ok so I am tearing down my 150 planted tank and going saltwater fish only.
I have set up plenty of reef tanks but never a fish only so I need a little guidance/advice. I only plan to have about 5 fish in the tank so the bio load shouldn't be to hard to keep up with.
The plan for inside the tank is to use a thin layer of crushed coral that can be vaccumed easily, the decor is going to be minumal. For filtration I plan to use a fluidized sandbed, a Uv sterilizer, and a 30 gallon sump with only filter socks to catch large debri.
Please don't suggest live rock, if I could afford that I wouldn't be going fish only with this tank. Lol
So I am keeping it simple, cheap, and easy to clean. Ideas suggestions welcome.
Thanks
Eric
