    Thinking to setup a FOWLR 30 Gallon.

    So, i got a 30 Gallon tank, it alredy came with a heater, a filter, 1 Aqua-glow Light ( 20w ) and 1 Sun-glow light ( 20w ), I don't know if these lights are good for saltwater.
    Do you think it would be worth it? I would get a protein skimmer, live sand and of course live rock. And what kinds of fish would i get to put there? Thank you!

    You'll want to read through and follow this procedure: Setting Up a FOWLR Aquarium

    Unfortunately, the 30 gallon doesn't provide many options for the kinds of fishes you can keep. In marine aquarium terms, that is a small aquarium. Nonetheless it will/would be fine for a pair of Anemonefish IF they are of the small species.

    You want to stock the aquarium with fish that, when they are old and fully grown are less than a total of about 4". Also, that aquarium isn't long enough for fishes that need to swim a lot, like Tangs, Rabbitfishes, large Angels, etc.

    Many other things to read through: Table/Contents - Link List
