I have some beginner corals if you are thinking of going with a reef tank once you are ready.

Get an idea on how much you want to budget...once the horse is out of the barn hard to keep it in....

Seriously ask more questions here before you spend. There are many good deals to be had on this forum

Default Advice?

What do you think is a reasonable price to pay for a 100 ish gallon tank, stand and all equipment?

that really depends on the type of equipment... probably best to be patient, because quite a few full systems come up for sale at a really good price...

very hard to say because depend on the equipment. There are huge difference in price between a vortech and koralia power head. Bubble King vs Aquamedic skimmer, etcc...

I would say for a decent setup, $700-$1000 should get you one system from some one who wants to get out of this hobby
