Cool I'll look into that. As much as I would love to a 15-20 gallon setup, I have a small cubicle so I don't really have that much room to play with haha. I'm pretty familiar with aquarium care as I've kept fresh water for years ranging from 2.5 to 60 gallons. This will be my first salt...- sanchez

Wow, thanks for all the input! So in order to make my own saline mixture, I'd need a salinity test kit or a hydrometer (guessing) yes ? As far as livestock goes, I plan on sticking with the softies at first then if it all works out and I can manage this thing on my desk at work I'll upgrade...- sanchez

Hello all, I'm new to the marine environment so I picked up a 3 gallon Picotope for my desk at work. It comes with a 9w 50/50 light (dunno what that means) and a 40gph pump/filter.
