little help about starting with the sea!

[Maggi]

Hi all!

I have decided to start upp a sea aquarium.
What I have is a 102L aquarium and a Heater.
what kind of skimmer and powerhead should I buy? I will make the Sump by my self
is it okay to use the sea from here (in Iceland they do so I wonder if it is okay here) and is it okay to take the sand from the beaches?

And just over all what do I need to get my self started?

Best
Maggi

Hi Maggi

No, you cant use the water, it is brackish and maybe polluted.
The sand is also not suitable.

It is best you go to the nearest aquarium store and they will maybe help you with everything.
Here is also people who will help you and, You can find used equipment from this forum to a very reasonable price.

Welcome to the hobby
