I've priced everything out in lists before and I came up with about $300 for the 25gal $2000 to setup my 50gal and $5000 for my 120gal it all depends on what you want to keep. For a full blown reef tank with skimmer, MH lights, and lots of flow I'd say $50 per gallon.

I have a 65 gallon and no idea how much I have put into it in the last two and a half years. I started out with a softie tank and PC's and now have all SPS ,Rics ,some zoos , clams, metal halides, Sump , internall overflow, Calcium reactor, and a ever changing list of fish and corals. Apperently I get bored with certain pieces or I keep finding nicer pieces and have to make room for them. All I'm saying is I don't think you can put a price on it because you will always have different ideas on how you want your tank to look. Also there is a ever changing varriety of fish and corals that make you want to buy more. Keep it simple and try to go to a LFS only when you need something not because you need something to do. Going to a LFS just to look is a mith and you will always leave with something.
