    Hey everyone, Just got the urge to get a saltwater aquarium so been browsing here for a while, now that i had some questions of my own i finaly made an account!

    Hopefully will start buying parts for my aquarium within the next few months after i move!

    First things first, need to find a good place to get my equipment over in sweden, sadly we dont seem to have that much to choose from compared to you guys.

    Anyway I should get going... Mom always tells me to stay away from fishy people ;)

    Moms know best!
    Welcome, Keep asking questions, especially before make big purchases/changes. As for your question on good places to buy, checkout the online stores to see if they ship internationally. Check you local papers to see if you can pick up a used system. Sometimes you can get good deals that way. In the US we have "Craigslist", a online for sale listing of just about anything. Maybe you have something similar? Online sites have the best prices compared to LFS.
    Good luck, keep us posted on your progress.

    For those of you joining us that are new to the hobby - the best piece of advice you'll get around here as a saltwater newbie is 3Reef's slogan
    "Go slow, let it grow."
    And for those experianced hobbyists joining us - it's still good advice :p
    good luck and post pics soon :)
