$975 was the total set up cost for my 24g nano. That figure included all equipment, tank, stand, sump, skimmer, lighting, chiller, plumbing, reactors (calcium and kalk), and timers.

The maintenance cost on my tank per month is ~$5-10/month. Most of that cost is replacing test kits as they expire, or become empty. I do not include purchasing new livestock in that number. I use so little food that the overall cost is quite small when spread over 12 months.
