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.

My electrical bill nears $100 alone, lol

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

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.

Way to make us feel bad... 150 is way to low a number... I guess I should get out of reefing a get a 'more cost effective pet'..

Here boy! Here boy!!

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