All SAILORS, my greetings. I kindly request to be accepted into the family of saltwater enthusiasts. Ten years ago, I saw a live marine aquarium for the first time. It seemed so charming to me that I began to consider the possibility of owning such a wonder. However, I was told, "Do you really need it? Such a hassle and expensive!"

And a large batch of live rocks with inhabitants from a Kharkivian who was selling his marine aquarium. I also bought all the necessary pumps. And on 20.02.2016, I started the salting process. I tried to do everything correctly, even though it was fast. IgorK and MAKS-SEA gave me advice. First, I salted the water, then after 2 days, I brought the rocks from Kharkiv in buckets with water, and poured the water into the aquarium. Later, the live sand with live rocks from Kyiv arrived. The startup of the sump and the entire water purification system. And it began, and... the joy of the completed work did not take long to come. Here is a photo report for
