Remember, larger aquariums are generally easier to take care of, but harder to set up initially. You must have a sturdy stand or base that will support the aquarium, water, and habitat weight. For a 30 gallon aquarium, the weight will be a minimum of 250 pounds. You should also cut a 1/2" thick piece of styrofoam the same size as your aquarium base to be used as a cushion. Additional basic equipment required are an air pump, check valve, gang valve, air line tubing, saltwater undergravel filter, glass cover, and fluorescent light. Optional equipment includes an outside power filter with dacron floss and activated carbon or an ion-exchange resin, heater, an undergravel power pump, and/or an ultraviolet purifier (preferably with the bulbs above the water for easier maintenance and better efficiency)..
