HEY ALL!

Josh_Melnek · Feb 6, 2023

Hi everyone. Name is Josh Melnek. I have been out of the fish hobby for about 10 yrs freshwater planted comminity tanks and African Cichlids. Never saltwater, so I am thinking about dipping my toes into a small 40g with a pair of clowns and an anenome or 2 & a clean up crew?

Innovative Marine seems to have some nice tank kits. Any recommendations?

Welcome to Reef2Reef! FWIW, you may consider waiting on the anemone until the tank matures.

Welcome to R2R josh! innovative marine makes great tanks especially for first time saltwater hobbyists, if you're looking for a 40 gallon i'd check out the IM nuvo 40. anemones tend to be much more forgiving in tanks 6+ months of age, feel free to share any other questions/ideas you might have

Welcome!! Looking forward to seeing your tank once you decide on one!

Innovative Marine makes great tanks, I'm also a huge fan of WaterBox and Fluval... If you're looking for a decent budgest tank, MarineLand also makes reef ready tanks for a decent price.

Welcome to R2R and the salty world Josh. Waterbox are great tanks. Take things slowly. Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here who will support and advise you when needed.
