How to start a reef aquarium low detritus quick start guide.

The fastest guide on the web.

Clownfish with Sea Anemone

The amount of information on the web for starting a saltwater aquarium is vast. Follow ONE simple step in the beginning that will lead you down the path of success.  This is simply our recommendation.

Step 1.

Design reefskape structures that minimize detritus and allow for maximum water circulation and flow. Look for aquascape material where detritus removal is easy. Reef rock and dry rock have been used successfully for years, however those options come with increased maintenance due to shapes and texture.

If you focused on water circulation and flow inside the aquarium before ever filling with saltwater, you just saved THOUSANDS of dollars. You will spend less on equipment, algae and slime fighting products, disease cures, cleanup crews and so much more.

Congratulations!
