I've been keeping freshwater tanks for pretty much my whole life, and wanted to take the dive into saltwater. I decided to set up a 29 gallon I had in starage (30x18x12). For Equipment I'm running a Rena XP2 for a sump, a Bak Pak 2 protein skimmer, and a tetra whisper 45 HOB filter, and 2 Koralia 2 Powerheads. I have 40 pounds of live sand, and 35 pounds of cured live rock. I'm going to start it as a FOWLR, but intend to make it a reef over time. I know I want to put a pair of Clowns in there, but not sure what else. I have a couple of questions.
1.) I'm thinking the equipment I have is pretty good, and will do the job, am I missing anything?
2.) What other fish beside the clowns can I put in there? (Keep in mind this will eventually be a reef tank.
3.) Suggestions for the clean up crew?
4.) Suggestions on a good light fixture for a 29 gallon reef?
5.) What are some easy corals I can start out with?
I'm sure I will think of some other stuff but this will do for now, any help would be much appreciated.
