You will need RO/DI water, which you can buy at a local fish store for $.50-$1.00 a gallon, [...]

i’m doing a science project on making a fish tank so if any one has any hints as to what kind of lighting i should use, the salt, water (tap or reserved) filtration, live rock (cured vs. uncured), bag or real live sand, pumps, water testing kits, and my stocking plan like how many producers/consumers/decomposers [...]
