K.I.S.S.

You should know what type of fish you want to add to your saltwater aquarium. You can add a lot of different types of fish. If you want, you can add some tropical fish. You can also add a lot of freshwater fish. However, it’s not a good idea to add too many fish at once. You should keep your fish in separate tanks if you want to. You should also make sure that you have a lot of salt in your aquarium. Saltwater aquariums are supposed to have plenty of salt.

Choose Your Tank Location

Choose a tank location that has enough light and is away from direct sunlight. You don’t want the water in your tank to get too hot. This will make your fish uncomfortable. You should also make sure that your aquarium is not too small. It should be large enough for your fish to swim around freely. You should also make sure that the temperature of your tank is right.

Start a Tank Log Book

You should also set up a log book to keep track of your fish. It should include the name of your fish, the date you bought it, and the name of the person who sold it to you. You should also include the name of the fish food that you are feeding them with.

Biological Filtration

You should make sure that you have an aquarium with saltwater. This is because saltwater is better for fish than freshwater. It is important to understand that freshwater is full of chemicals that can be harmful to your fish. Saltwater is better for your fish because it is not as polluted as freshwater.

Sumps
