Hi my name is Ron and I'm an aquariholic ... oh wrong site

actually had my first freshwater tank - 10 gallon- sometime around late 60's.

anyways now I have a sixty gallon tank all glass, and am considering going to saltwater. I moved the freshwater fishes to smaller tanks except for the large 'plecostomus fish' and am considering taking them to the local fish store. I have read about the need for a protein skimmer and heard that a trickle filter and nitrfying canister is recommended. any thoughts on how a beginner as myself should get started? I like the soft corals anemones etc.
