I just set up a 75g cube tank, and I did it for cheap.
100 bucks for power heads
90lbs live rock 200
T5 lights 380 (ok this wasnt to cheap but you need lights for corals.

so $680 for a 75g tank. If you do lots of water changes you dont need a skimmer. But i could still add a skimmer to the tank and the price will still be reasonable.
That's really reasonable...

I think to have a system so reasonably priced, you needed to do a lot of DIY stuff though, correct?
