and all the fish we have either caught with a hook when fishing in the ocean or netted or trapped off my dock
only other thing we have bought is some charcoal and it goes a long way
We chose to do this just as an experiment and see what it's like since we have never had a saltwater tank before but didn't want to kill a bunch of 50 dollar fish. Turns out it's sort of neat watching these fish even though they are not as colorful as most tropical fish you see. They have quite the personality too!
