In response to message posted by GoodGuy:

If you're still starting out the best advise is READ READ READ and talk with some people. A good book to buy is "The Conscientious MarinAquaristst" by Robert MFennerer. However, saltwater isn't really the best way to start, it's better to start with freshwater until you get used to doing some of the maintenance, but if you have your heart set on saltwater, then the best setup I've found to be the most pleasing to the eye is the Berlin Setup and it also requires the leasamountnt of maintenance (no expensive filters i.e. wet/dry) but it's aexpencece to start. You need as many pounds of live rock and live sand and the size of your tank.

Best of luck to you and I hope you found thelpfullfull as I'm also starting a saltwater aquarium and this is the knowledge I've found from my resercherch.
