i have a 28g bowfront tank that's currently freshwater for about the past like 2-3 yrs. i want to convert to saltwater. should i just empty the whole tank and clean it up and start over? cuz that's what i'm thinking about doing.

djmc7300 first this is what you do go get your bank statements...


and if you have at least $1500 that you don't care about then empty the freshwater tank....



just make sure you research the hobby and cost of it before you make the jump....


if I know what I know now I wouldn't of made the jump but now since Im in it... Im in it for life :) its addictive :)
