I am creating a website for aquariums with both fresh and salt water information. If you now some things about saltwater aquariums, please post with what you know and I will post it on the website with credit to you.

I need a short introductory paragraph, info on filters, heating and lighting.

Thanks.

How about, don't try it, until you have several years of keeping freshwater fish, under your belt.

i agree with kana, you need a degree of experiance to enable you to create something that people will take seriously

you could not really do it justice in a short introduction as the filtration, lights etc depends on what set up you are running i.e fish only, reef tank, corals & inverts

Sorry Jack, we don't want to discourage you, but caring for a Marine setup is serious business.

The Marine environment is incredibly fragile, and if anything, that's the message you need to get across to someone who is thinking of giving it a go.

Beyond that, you require the input of a person with some decent Marine experiance. I vaguely remember someone here saying they'd had a Marine tank once, but I'm uncertain who it was.
