Well I doubt you can make that much here cleaning tanks! I don't know though. In Singapore its $800 Sing Dollars a week, which I think is about $500 CAD or so. Thats just for this guy though and I bet there are cheaper maintenance guys there but my dad used this guy for his Koi Pond and then when he upgraded tanks, had him do it as well.

I should have also mentioned my dad travels at least a week a month around asia for work, so he not home on a regular schedule and my step mother is not going near the tank for maintenance I think that makes a big difference as well. They also travel every few months to dive and miss a week or so.
