Saltwater Reef
What type of tank is good for a saltwater reef tank?
I looked at my local fish store’s reef tanks and the were all in nano tanks. are nano tanks better used for reef tanks? or does it matter at all?
It depends on what type of fish that you’re planning on having. It also depends on how much you are willing to spend. If you are asking what type of tank, well there are glass and arcryllic, even though arcryllic tanks are supposedly stronger than glass, arcryllic also scratches a lot easier than glass.
The reason why I say it depends on what type of fish that you’re planning on having is due to the fact that some fish species can get pretty large, such as the golden trevally, groupers, snappers, etc.
Theories say that the larger the tank, the better it is. It is not necessarily true, however, it also depends on how well you take care of the tank. If you are willing to dedicate time, it’s well worth it, but patience is the key to having a successful fish tank.
Overall, the ultimate answer is about how much you are willing to spend on just the tank itself. You will need the equipment such as protein skimmers, filters, etc. etc.
Another thing, the difference between Arcryllic and glass is that Arcryllic is also lighter than glass. Anyways, I hope that this helps, Good luck and thanks for asking………………..
