but what you all forget is that every now and then, we se reefers napping on the price of salt, in relation to how often you do a water change and how big the tank is.
reading up a bit, thy eat a fair amount, and thus, it has to go somewhere (out the dolphin's plumbing.
do you know how much maintaining good water will cost you, by doing water changes !!
these cost hit you each time you do them,
and I hate it if some get into it, and after a while realise, it is not for them, and put it up for adoption,
than someone ells gets it as a pet pall, and after a year again realise it is not for him.
we se it so often, its fun, it's nice, get it.
so I urge to consider the cost that will hit you for up keep.
if you can convince your wife, no more tanning, forget the RV, kids, hmmm, thy can bike to school, and in stead of a flat screen, you walk to the library, than go AHEAD.
(all assuming your income is 150.000 minus) in case you have more than 150.000, don't consider the cost, only the fact that you go into it for a minimum of 20 years ore so (and if you have any feelings for the fish, YOU CANT DIVORCE ! and move on)
