I am aware that goldfish produce ammonia which is why you cannot have other freshwater fish in the same tank and I know that glass is a porous material which is why you cannot use a tank that previously housed reptiles.
Sooo is there a problem with using a tank that housed goldfish for years to make a saltwater aquarium?

I am experienced with freshwater fish tanks and I really want a saltwater with only minimal things, that looks like the ocean. I’ve never had a saltwater before but I want to give it a whirl. If five gallons is not possible what’s the smallest size that is? Also if you have any recommendations on projects please list them.

I’ve never actually set up a proper freshwater fish tank before. I do have experience with guppies and bettas with some success. I know it might not be advisable to set up a Marine aquarium without mastering freshwater fish-keeping, but is it possible to do so? I’d like to jump right into saltwater aquariums as I’m not that attracted to the freshwater fish.

I just started up a saltwater aquarium and so far have been following instructions on the book, but there’s no help in what to do if your water foggs up. I put in some rocks (well rinsed) to decorate (not live rocks, but they were purchased at the petshop for an aquarium) , and mixed the salt with water per indications, and added the live sand as the book instructed, and all my other supplies are already up, like the filter, heater, ect. I have no fish yet or any other living creatures, as I’m to wait for the water to cycle first. On the first day of having set up my aquarium, the water was pretty cloudy, which I understand that’s normal when you first set up a tank (I have had freshwater fish before and that seems normal until everything settles). The 2nd day it was less cloudy, and by the 3rd day it was pretty clear… however, by the 4th day, it got pretty cloudy again, and now it’s even cloudier. Why is this happening and how can I fix it? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
All the freshwater aquariums I’ve had in the past stay foggy for only the first few days after setup, but gradually clearing up. Once they clear up, they don’t get foggy again like my saltwater is doing.
