Cheap but successful systems

Made this little reef for under 100 pretty much
Got the tank for 13 at a surplus freight store
Filter was 12 at Meijer
2 48w lights were 26 together
Heater was 10 on sale
Rock I bought at Lfs for 2/lb
Sand was 5 per bag I bought 2

As u can see I'm able to keep maxis and softies very happy. I tried a plate coral but I died while I was on vacation which may have been due to high salinity from evaporation.
