well I have several years exp. I'm just wondering what I would need to set up a small reef with maybe two percs in it... I'm assuming I dont need a protien skimmer for a tank that small I have an old whisper 20-40 filter and a 100watt heater and hood assembly with no bulb. Can I run like a Cora life 50 50 in it for a reef set up a d is there any links for idk I dont want to sound rude but free old equipment I'm unemployed and make very little money so anything would help
I use to grow corals and go to the expos through ctars back in 2006
