The Powder Blue Tang has a striking yellow dorsal fin and powder blue body, this fish is something to behold.This type of Surgeonfish is not easy to care for, it is sometimes prone to contracting marine ich.As for food and you’ll want to provide plenty of algae for grazing and also supplement their diet with dried algae or dried seaweed using a veggie clip to hold it in place.Your tang will also do well on, Formula 1, 2, Angel formula, Mysis and brine shrimp. Make sure your tank is well established before introducing your Powder Blue Tang and quarantine your fish before introducing it to your tropical fish tank setup.Like most saltwater fish it would be wise to drip acclimate the fish before introducing it to its new environment. fishtanksetups.com
New Marine Aquarium Help.?
I’ve been keeping a variety of fish now for 5 years now. All tropical, but now I wish to step it up and start a marine aquarium. People who know about keeping a saltwater fish tank please can you tell me or give a list of all the appliances and little gadgets needed to maintain it. 
This would help me a lot.
I’m tossing up between buying a 14 gallon tank… or 29 gallon. Looking more towards 29 Gallon though.
I would like to have a little bit of coral and I would like my first marine fish to be a pair of clown fish. Is there any sort of coral that would fit the environment for a clown fish or is it rather easy to care for an anenome…

Does living next to the ocean make keeping a marine aquarium significantly easier?
I live in the tropics, right next to the beach, and I’m thinking about keeping a marine aquarium.
I am aware that keeping a marine aquarium is generally extremely complicated and time-consuming, but I’m wondering if I can skip certain steps by using authentic ocean water and taking advantage of the local tropical climate.
Presuming that I stock the entire aquarium with only local fish caught in the ocean near my house:
1. Could I just put new seawater in everyday rather than use complicated saltwater kits? I go walking on the beach everyday, so it’s not a big problem to collect a couple of gallons of authentic seawater everyday on my walk (probably good exercise, too).
2. My apartment is NOT air-conditioned or heated (all I have is a fan right next to my bed), so the temperature inside my apartment is usually the same as the outdoor temperature. Does this mean that my tank will generally be the same temperature as the nearby ocean, and that I don’t need a heater to keep local species of fish?
3. Is there anything else of which I should be aware?
