How much do you spend each month?

[Paverdude]

How much do you expect to spend in a year, and divide that by 12 to give you an accurate idea how much to budget off each paycheque.

That works out to more than my paycheck!

lalalalalalalalalalalalal - I don't hear you. Don't want to know - just know it's lots.

Good question.....

I buy a lot of dry goods (salt, light bulbs/lightbulbs , additives, RO filters, etc.) in bulk, so it would be hard to calculate that part. For fish and corals, though, I'm pretty well stocked to my personal limit, so I rarely buy livestock. Not even going to hazard a guess.

I have to make a conscious decision to stay away from MLFS as it si very easy to spend $100 to $200. I try to buy most of my major supplies on the J&L christmas sales. I also look for their monthly specials as this helps when it comes to replacing lights, salt, filter and additives.

Grrrr, You had to make me add it up didn't you . I hope my husband never looks at this poll

My electrical bill nears $100 alone, lol

Well if we ignore utilities, I still need a 7th option. "Way to much"

[TheReefGeek]

You capped out the poll at $151+

I think you vastly underestimate my ability to blow my money on reef stuff.

what are you running??? My power bill only went up 25.00/month and that is running two HQI 250s, 1 400, two 36" VHO and a tone of pumps and such.

I wish I only spent $150 per month. It's not easy being a cronic "reefer addict".

I hate to say it but because Im still in the process of setting everything up, I've been spending minimum $500 to $1000 a month between equipment and livestock. This has been going on for about 7 or 8 months now too.
