Its a beautiful tank, but, not cheap. it cost around $615 with a stand,
hydrometer, heater, net, sand (60 pounds of live sand) and tempurature measurer. not cheap, but after that i had to take it to the next level, i filled the tank and dumped the sand in and it was cloudy as heck, it took a few days for it to settle down. then i went to the store and got some
live rock (20.5 pounds) and a mag-float glass cleaner. how much? $170 bucks. yikes! then i had to buy some fish so i got 3 damselfish and 2 shrimp (coral banded and peppermint shrimp) 3 nassarius snails 3 blue legged dwarf hermits and a sally light foot crab. after this i got rid of the damselfish ( the human way, i returned them to the store) and got 4 blue and green chromis and 2 clownfish. Beautiful, after this as of now i just got a new coral! its a great first tank and i hope to get another 20 gal. tank soon that i can plumb up to it! its a lot of work but great fun!
