thats one thing most people dont think about.....everyone thinks "ya, I wanna huge tank!"....they seem to miss the fact that operating costs go up exponentially as well.....I know of one guy here that has a 500g display and he does a full bucket of salt(180g) every two weeks
.....Laurie does 50g a week on her 700g system and I dont think that is enough....she should probably do 100g a week but that would be quite expensive .....
