We are thinking about getting a small 45g corner tank and making it sw. My question is, what do we have to do to have a sw tank? What kind of substrate is needed? What are the "must haves" for a sw set up? I don't know what kind of fish we want, definitely the cheaper ones to start out with simply because we are sw stupid. :) Thanks in advance for all the help!

I plan to start FOWLR, but maybe add some soft coral (mushrooms and zoos) and possibly a couple of the hardier stony coral (bubble coral, maybe?
