my buddy just gave me this giant 60 gallon setup with all sorts of ****. pumps, rocks, lil anename lookin things, lights, ballasts, ph measurement stuff, salt content measuring stuff, heaters, and all these other chemicals.

so far i've set up the pump but it's making scratchy sounds. ****! anyone know what the hell i do with all this ****?

you'll have to buy some books and read up on it. I know they're a ***** to get them living. Do yourself a favor and run to a pet store or book store and get some books. It'll save you $$$ and dead fish.

i already got this $40 book on everything about it but it's pretty long

the filter needs pressure and suction....like a syphon(sp)

I think that most of the fish in the ocean are saltwater fish. With your rommates, it's probably safer if you left them in the ocean. Thank You
