hello new guy from houston, tx

hello all. im new to this and trying to learn. ive had a chance to experiment with freshwater for a while but felt it wasnt enough. fell in love with the way saltwater aquariums look. going to be starting one soon and will deff be posting as many pics as i can of my progress any tips would be greatly appreciated. thx in advance.

 

Welcome to the hobby. I'm from Houston as well, so feel free to hit me up if you have any questions.

 

thx. and yes i have many questions lol but im sure with a little bit of search i can find answers. but i do have one question which size should i start with. i know thats probly the most asked question lol.

 

the bigger the better.. so whatever your budget allows. look on craigslist, there's always some good deals on there.

 

been looking but for the most part no replies. thought of a 20g long. but i told myself might as well save up and buy a bigger one.

 

Definitelyy go bigger. Look at 40 breeders.. very good starting tank.

 

sweet i will deff take a look into one. know of any good places to search here in houston. live closer to the south part of houston. thx.

 

Welcome to 3reef!
Like aw1447 said bigger is better , more stability for the most part.

 

thx and i will deff keep a lookout for the biggest one i can afford. should i look at gettin something that has basic parts or just go out anf buy piece by piece?

 

Well went out n bought a 55g aquarium with a 20g aquarium only. The 55g was the started kit. Wondering what all from it should I keep or get rid of. Looking for any tips and how to start my sump or what all would I need. Any info would be greatly appreciated
