Can I use a normal filter? (I already have a new Whisper EX filter 45 gallons) I'm going to buy a suitable heater 45 liters a head of power? Protein Skimmer Test Kit I fill the tank with tap water and buy water purifier or cleaner than I can my own water premix at home instead of buying Instant Ocean sea salt to make my own water Hydrometer Live sand That's all I need? my tank is going to be a FOWLR tank, with all this equipment and how often water changes are needed and how much 10-15% of a month or so?
