Trouble with most All-In-One tanks is you need to keep spending once you bought it if you want to keep anything other than softies.
Solana $799 2 Heaters $50 2 x Korallia 1 $60 Also, I want to replace the glass cover with some kind of mesh cover to let in more light. It's spend, spend, spend whether you have 5 gallons or 500 gallon! .

Yes...and then you want to upgrade. First it's phosban reactor, then lighting, then skimmer, then calcium reactor. Then you decide you want different brands. Then you decide to get a bigger tank, and you need to buy all new bigger, better, awesomer equipment. Really, it's all quite nerdy.

I just wanted to ask, as I'm looking at getting this set up as an introduction to salt water tanks, has the price come down - as Ocean Aquatics is advertising the set up at $349.99? I thought that was a heck of a deal.
I'm curious about how the tank is running so far. I'm really only interested in keeping softies in this tank anyway, so the 150 Watt MH should be good enough, right?

OA say that they don't have any in stock right now (I called them and they told me to go to King Ed's) & they say Current-USA are being very slow to send them up here. Be quick though, King Ed's only have one set left. Tank is running fine so far but then again, it's really just a pile of live rock & live sand at the moment. If you're only keeping softies you could save money by going for the PC lights (if & when Current-USA send stock to our LFS's!) instead of the Halides. .
