Hello Everyone,
I am looking into getting into this hobby. My roommate has a Freshwater tank, but it doesn't really do anything for me. So I am going to try the SW thing. I have been reading the forums to try to gather as much info as I can so I will be able to make some knowledgeable decisions regarding purchases I will be making.
I am supposed to be looking at a 75 AGA reef ready tank that is on Craigslist either tomorrow or the weekend. I have read what to look for on buying a used tank, but I am open to any suggestions or feedback on what else to look for. Ideally I would like to setup a FOWLR tank then maybe progress to a reef tank once I have a better grasp on the hobby. Well permitting that I like it enough to pursue it further.
I understand that this hobby is not the cheapest but I am willing to take my time and do not need to have it up and running ASAP. With that being said I have noticed that there is an LED group buy going would it be beneficial to purchase these or hold out for an older used unit to light the tank?
Any info or recommendations would be appreciated.
Eddy
