I joined this forum about a year ago, did some reading (here and elsewhere) and decided to hold off on setting up a larger tank.
I recently found a pretty decent marine setup locally although i have not purchased it (yet).
I was wondering if a low maintenance reef tank could be set up in a tank , and if my wants are realistic.
Display tank: ~ 50 gallons
sump: 20 gallons
Main tank has small overflow and is drilled for a closed loop system (1 inlet, two outputs).
I would really like to have a low maintenance tank (not sure if this is possible) I was hoping i could do either 5% weekly or 10% every two week waterchanges. I would also like to stock hardy fish with a cleanup crew of inverts.
Would this be possible? Or is wanting something low maintenance like this really just neglectful?
