Tks for the replys everyone. I've been reading the forum for awhile and the info is really vast. I read till blur. Can some one state for me a list of basic essestial equipments?space realli is constrain due to very small room and table. Max length I can commint is ard 30-40 cm but height no prob of course. Hope to get cheap equipments but not until the extent ill-treating the fishes or corals inside my tank. Trying to squeeze my wallet for 1. -

Hi all.. i'm new here.. Have been reading all the posts ard the forum these past weeks.. I live in woodland and i went down to a fish shop at the chinatown market recently..the one beside the hawker centre 2nd lvl.. The owner is a nice auntie.bought a few FW LS from her.Saw a pico marine tank inside the shop which had a cleaner shrimp nia..i went back a few times and the shrimp still looked quite happy..tat setup cost $298 including LS,Corals,Filter,tank..She mentioned theres a $198 setup and i'm considering bout that.. I asked her any need for some kind of skimmer and she said dont need.i guess such a tiny tank wont need right?nxt i asked what kind of filter will be in the tank and she mentioned under gravel filter.Will be having live rocks in the tank oso..guess small ones huh..then the sand i donno live anot liao..maintence is that i gonna buy $1 of seawater from her every week and change water or i mix the water with sea salt myself..er.. .i know beginners shd start with big tanks,but due to my space & financial constrain i really cant get any bigger then that liao,i wanna put on my table top de,living room is a no no for me,i js plan to keeep a couple of fish and a prawn or js purely prawns.. is it feasible ? I mean have u all went to that shop b4 and seen that pico tank in the shop before?i wonder realli can tahan marine life anot.. the auntie service oso not bad thats y i willing to consider buy from her...but i think better to ask u all the small tank can keep any LS inside happy anot.i dont have the exact measurement but i agar agar think its ard, 30 x 20 x 20 ..my room i oso think its abit stuffy,will it be too warm for the fishes? Need advise..dont wanna ill treat any fishys... =/
