Over 7000 for a 70 gallon tank.

But if I had a 300 gallon tank all the same equipment would work.

I calculated mine at $64 per gallon makes me cry.....😭

You got off easy

Also, counting coral replacement. Don't forget, you need stuff IN the tank!

Compared to you and Kien I would say so but then again for anyone in this hobby who takes it seriously everything has a cost that they just don't want to be reminded of no matter if it's a 10 gallon or 500 gallon tank it all costs 😊😊😊

I added it up in my head and divided by gallons.... then thought nawwww, maybe I only have this much invested! The number didn't get much lower.

Exactly! And nevermind the compounded cost of the past (replacing equipment, consumables like salt and media, seemingly never ending livestock purchases). And don't forget those occasional times when you rip up money and flush it down the toilet like some sort of ritual sacrifice for the tank gods. Wait, everyone does that right?? Or is that just me ?

Sorry, now I'm getting off topic. I'm going to go to my happy place and play with my ponies now (that may or may not be little).

I've thought about this a couple times when I think about buying stuff and I usually let out a sigh but I'm in it for so much already what's another $1000......

Kien please tell me your not a "Brony" that would just be wrong so wrong.....
