Ok maybe i should clarify my explanation abit more, depending on what your gonna keep in the tank the price will obviously differ. If your going for a sps tank, and 120 gallon or more your lighting alone is gonna cost you at least $700 (conservative est.). Your skimmer $400ish used I would guess if not more, tank/stand/sump $600ish, $200ish for plumping/pumps, and you havent even gotten into LR yet, or livestock. Now i think im being pretty cheap for costs too. Just my opinion thou, Im preparing to get myself a 120ish gallon myself dec/jan so ive been told to plan for $45/gallon. At my calculations thats $5400ish.
