Not sure what you mean by wet, but I pay $152/hr + $60/hr for the
Instructor.

If by wet, you mean fuel, yes, included in rental rate.

Yet, wet means with fuel.. lol

Not too cheap on the DA-20... but then again I haven't rented in a couple yrs.. the C182 was $179+fuel surcharge Wet then..

No other charges.

Price changes with fuel costs.

Looks like you are having lots of things going on so for me, I would not enjoy much (or even hate it) of SW if there are so many important things that are so important to do.

Priority your stuff and have a SW tank when it actually brings joys instead of hell :-)

My three cent

with being a new daddy of two and work and tanks i was over whelmed as well at first but 6 months later i now building a new tank lol. as others have said keep it simple. my daughters get fussy we point thentowards teh tank and they are calm they love it. it has saved my sanity numerous times.

main thing is do what is best for you. no one knows you like you.

Sounds like it's time to automate your system. Mine is all auto from feeding fish to dosing & top off. Saves time so you can spend more time playing. I just switched over to the Fauna Marin balling set up so evrything including trace elements is all automated - works great.

Those auto upgrades might interfere with the flying costs.

And as someone said in another thread of mine...

If you go with fancy gadgets, you are better to buy the best and forget the cheaper stuff. Cheaper = lower quality = more issues and more finicky.

ATO I don't trust at all.

Already using auto feeder. Last year. I love it. Controlled feeding.

I hear yah. Just hard to justify the cost if you know what I mean.
