salt water tank to fresh water...

zizziz · July 30th, 2008

I am looking to buy a 200 gal tank that is currently used as a saltwater tank. Can I just change it over to a fw tank? Are there any dangers or anything I need to look out for when I do this?

thanks

I have a 55 gallon F/W betta tank that was a salt tank for 4 years...What I did was just empty it out completely changed decorations and filled it up...I let it run for 2 months with nothing in it...So yes, it can be done..

Good luck!
