Hi, i plan to start a small marine aquarium in my study room. Any suggestion where can i view all the necessary equipment and setup in Klang Valley. Prefer a pet shop with wide marine variety and reasonable price. I just need a very small aquarium with cabinet to rear clown fish, some corals etc...really noob in this area but excited each time i saw colourful marine aquarium in midvalley.

Finally my 1st mini tank is up & running today. I got 1 problem now, the water clarity is not clear, look like milk after 3 hours running. Btw, my hydrometer reading is 1.030, is it too high?

Finally, i get 1.025 hydrometer reading after suck out all the previous water & mix new tank of water. Start to intro live rocks into the tank.

The sales person is the guy with spec & around late 30's. I think the oldest salesman at East Aqua Ikano.

Now i change to visit Sam Aquatic & Reef Altech. More information from them.
