It is quite possible to have a small reef tank. The salt guys call them nanos so check out that forum there.

And salt tank can get cloudy for the same reasons as FW tank. Remember to balance out the tank with palnt life (macro algae) right from the start to prevent that. And if you get some kill the lights for a few days.

best of luck
