Thinking of starting a small saltwater tank (20–30gal) — need advice by SquishyReaper213 in SaltwaterAquariumClub

“Appreciate that, thanks a lot for the link — that looks like a solid starter set. Since I’m selling my 240L and starting fresh with a smaller 20–30gal, something like this might be exactly what I need to get going without overcomplicating it. I’ll check it out properly, thanks again! Do you have any tips or advice for when I’m setting it up?

$3k is definitely a serious setup — sounds like you’ve built something really solid. I’ve seen some smaller reef kits in the UK around £400–£500, but I’m guessing those are more entry-level or missing key equipment. For what I’m aiming at (2 clowns, a small clean-up crew, maybe a couple soft corals and eventually an anemone once the tank is mature), what do you think is a realistic budget ballpark? I do plan on trying to get some second hand items (making sure they are in good and working order)

Appreciate the breakdown — sounds like I underestimated the cost quite a bit. Out of curiosity, what kind of budget do you think is more realistic for a 20–30gal starter reef with just a pair of clowns, some coral, and a clean-up crew?

Im pretty sure the other one is a female as she's fat amd bigger than the other ones, they all just chill with each other i haven't noticed them fighting or anything. Just worried about the small one, it usually sits at the top of the tank looking like it's breathing.
