>why is a 20g high a bad place to start?
I originally thought that a 20g-high tank was 20" wide; but a 20g-high is 24" wide, while a extra-high has a 20" width. When buying lights, you'll have a much easier time finding fixtures in increments of 12".
My first reef tank was a 29g, which I think is a perfect starting size, but a finding 30" lights at the time was a pain.
>Im not looking to go BIG. i already have big for fresh water, and thats where im sticking since i have this tank as an extra and want to make use of it.
Just pushing the concept that the larger the tank is, the more stable it is. Go with largest tank your available space and finances allow.
>I plan on educating myself as much before i start, so i know where to start as well, so all opinions are great, thanks!
Awesome starter book: The New Marine Aquarium: Step-By-Step Setup & Stocking Guide
>And as far as patient, yes i plan on it. Looking for something that will slowly become a beauty, and something i can just sit back and watch life take over really. I plan on maybe 2 or 3 fish if that, small, a few shrimp or a star fish, and some coral, but i realize there are fish that destroy coral so im learning which are good which arent.
One of my beliefs is if you want a fish tank, build a fish tank. If you want a reef tank, build a reef tank. Try to pick fish based on how they can help maintain your reef, not just look cool. I love me some gobies and blennies.
Think about starting with soft corals. Zoonathids, Green Star Polyps, leathers and mushrooms are all great starting corrals.
>Why do you say bare bottom to start with also? I also want to have this as a self filtration tank also, that requires less maintenance once its stable and set.
I like bare bottoms because they're very easy to clean. If you really want to have substrate, I would still recommend going bare until after your rock is fully cured.
move the fish to a cup with clean water (bottled water ideal, or if its tap water, let it sit an hour or two to adjust to the room temperature)
then, empty that fish tank using a small bucket or cups of water.. whatever u have to do. then when its light enough to carry, dump the rest of the water outside or in the toilet and wash the tank real good in the tub. u can use bleach if u want, but make sure u rinse it for a full 5 minutes with water to make sure its clean. Any leftover cleaners can kill the fish.
look on amazon or at walmart for a cheap power filter. they are easy to use and work great. example: https://www.amazon.com/Tetra-Whisper-Power-Filter-Three-Stage/dp/B001CHXJSK/
you hang it right on the edge of your tank. it'll replace the built-in filter, and it will work fine with what you have. you'll never have dirty water again and since u only have 1 fish, you'll only have to change the filter floss a couple times a year. make sure you dont overfeed the fish. only feed enough, so that everything is eaten within 5 minutes. if there is food left over after 5 minutes, you are feeding too much
good luck
I use Python brand gravel siphons and have no complaints. The small is $5 on Amazon; large is $10. Their squeeze bulb siphon starter is a great add-on for $6 and I think they're totally worth the extra cost.
This 44 second video shows how deep gravel cleaning looks. I don't do it much as my tanks are planted but it's not hard to do. Just get the siphon going and push into the gravel, suck until the water coming up starts to become clear, then let the gravel out and push down elsewhere. It's kind of fun. 😊
API Fungus Cure Powder, will turn your tank green, but works if he is not to far gone. Follow directions on the back of the packet. I have added the link below so you can see what it looks like and maybe pick it up at your LFS.

This is good but be careful they don’t eat much at that age and you’ll need to clean out what they don’t eat or it’ll rot and you’ll get an ammonia spike that will kill them really fast.
