You can have that in your home and they make great conversation pieces as well as brighten up your home. However, as stated before, you must maintain them correctly if you want your saltwater tropical fish to live.
Do Your Research
Before you spend a dime on saltwater tropical fish or tanks or anything, you should study as much as you can about the subject. Learn how to maintain the tank, how to check the salt content of the water, the PH balance, how to feed them, what to feed them, what fish go well with other fish, what decorations are ok to put in the tank, the size of the tank you should get and so on. There is so much involved with keeping a saltwater tropical fish tank that most don't even want to bother. But if you're up for the challenge and you're excited about keeping a saltwater tropical fish tank in your home, then do your research so that you can do everything right the first time. The last thing you want is to spend a lot of money on all these fish only to have them die because you didn't know what you were doing.
