Marine Aquariums
You basically have to be a chemist to do a marine aquarium set up, they require a lot of dedication time and effort, you are looking at about half a hour per day at least. The aquarium set up is difficult to master and then taking care of the fish that go in the marine is even harder. I'm not trying to put you of. Im just warning you that this is for no light hearted or easy going fish friend, this is for the avid hard bearing fish enthusiast! They require the correct PH level and temperature constantly, and also the correct level of salt to water level; this would be the most important part of any marine set up as the fish need the salt to survive!
Most salt tanks need a salt level of about 1.6 or 1.7. You can buy tools that will measure what kind of level that your salt is at. They also require a specific PH level; collect fish that need roughly the same PH level or you could end up with a disaster. The marine aquarium needs a complex filter system that is made by professionals and is very, very expensive to buy. The equipment, the storage and the fish are almost double the price of a freshwater aquarium but the end result is worth all the effort and hard work. The fish are absolutely stunning and are worth whatever you were willing to pay for them, not only that you are not limited to fish in this set up, you can have coral reefs instead! You can have anemones and special corals and you need only a few fish with some bottom feeders like crabs and shrimps and this still provides a beautiful tank, but because of the delicacy of the corals, it does tend to require a little bit more work. I know you think that more work isnt possible but it is!
A marine aquarium is stunning when it is set up, but the filtration system is complex, the materials and the fish are expensive and the whole thing needs a lot of time and work,.Only use this kind of aquarium if you are willing to do all those things I have mentioned!
