How to get a 10 gallon saltwater fish tank ready whats the cost ill be putting clown fish2007-11-24 23:34:56Answers:

Buy a nano tank. They come with what you need if you only plan on a clownfish. You will also need to purchase live sand or aragonite and about ten pounds of live rock. The prices of live rock will vary alot depending on where you live (this - answers - is international). This tank http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/pr. has the lighting and filtration that you need for under $200.00. You will also need to buy a marine test kit, hydrometer, and salt.

I don't know the cost but I thought I'd mention that clown fish should have live anemone to play in.

Saltwater tanks are tricky for even experts and the smaller the tank, the harder it is to maintain. Please consider a larger tank.

Go to a reputable fish store in your area. (Not Petco or Petsmart, those people are idiots.) Talk to the employees. They have lots of experience and advise for you. Buy your stuff there too, you will pay a little more, but it's worth it to have a good relationship with experts that will answer questions.

Saltwater tanks and the fish are very expensive. Remember that the electricity bill will rise significantly.

The smallest a beginner should attempt is 55 gallons. Look at it this way, you will be able to have more fish.

Good Luck.

I agree completely with Bonsylar. Marine tanks are very hard to keep, and there's no way you can keep a 10 Gal salt water tank.
