Try to go for some really rare South American natives and plant the tank heavily. Freshwater > Saltwater I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

Lionfish are cool, though. If you went FO or FOWLR the amount of care wouldn't be much more than a fw tank except you'd have to mix salt. -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
