What tank to get

[kaden192]

Hello everyone, I've been keeping fresh water fish tanks for 3 years now and decided to join the saltwater community! I've been doing my research for 1 month now and I think im ready! The only problem is that i dont know what tank to get as my first tank, but no bigger than 20 gallons to start. What your input on what tank to get?

Bigger the better for beginners as they are more foregiven if you do a 20 at least have a 20 gallon sump , water chemistry plays a big role on saltwater a water alk swings ,salinity, and temp if you can bigger I would .. also invest in rodi unit without one is a major headache

Welcome to R2R. If you're set on 20 gallons, I'd suggest a 20 long. Petco dollar per gallon sale is coming up in a week or two!

Can you give us more of an idea on what your priorities and limitations are (ease of care, stock, $, etc)? Agree with salt4life, the bigger the better (and more $ of course) for the reasons they stated.
