i was looking for some piece of equipment a few months back,on one of my posts another member added that this was the wrong hobby if you dont want to spend alot of cash,but i have found out this doesnt have to be the case i've managed to set up a 85 fowl for under $300 ,here is the list of equipent and the price i payed for others who want a slightly larger tank and are on a budget.
85 tanks slightly scratched FREE
metal stand needed a little paint $35
sea storm 200 $60 plus power head for it $22
802 powerhead $12.00
prizm with surface skimmer $25.00
lighting no tubes on a shop light total $20
80lbs ls FREE
lr for a few coral etc trades
there are a few other things ive left out which i already had test kits etc,but i just wanted to show if your not looking for a fancy setup it can be done for a few hundred dollars,you dont have toget a loan from the bank to have a healthy tank which looks good.
