    I started with a salt water aquarium a couple years ago and due to college had to give it up. Now that I graduated Im ready to get back to it. Right now I have a 29 gal tank set up with salt water and rock and im ready to do something with it. cant wait to really sink my teeth into my first reef project. ;D moneys gonna be a little tight so ill have to take this slow.

    Glad you asked, Im not entirely Sure. In the past I just did a hang on filter for a few fish and a shrimp with live rock. My current situation does not allow me to do any plumbing to my tank and so im more limited with my options. I was curious how well a bak pak bio filter would work in conjunction with some other form of filter. (maybe i should make a new thread)

    Also I have no major plans for light at this time but I will most likely go with compact florescent because a chiller is just out of my budget right now.
