Canreef Aquatics Bulletin Board - Random Thought Thread

I just made the mistake of adding up the retail prices of all my equipment.....ouch!! Everything for my build was bought new, except my return pump. Should not have done that:twised:

I'll know in a few months, I estimate it maybe adds $50, but my set up was pretty simple compared to others. We've had a tank going since we moved into this house -8 years.

Are you using everything? I only added up the equipment that was running, not everything else I have too. My costs are no where near yours though. :mrgreen:
