Sounds like you should start with a couple of books on how to set up an aquarium. Of course we’re glad to help, but to start from scratch?
Is there sucfh a thing as a newby list of aquarium web sites?
One thing; crushed coral for gravel will add hardness and raise the pH of hte water, and some fish need neutral to acidic. It’s particularly a bad idea if you have hard, alkaline water. You can get quartz gravel if you shop around a bit. Petco may have it. I got some online, and more from a local aquarium store. It often comes coated in acrylic. But if it’s quartz it shouldn’t adversely affect the water chemistry.
On the other hand if you’re doing salt water fish, no problem.
