Even I don't want to know the value of my tank! It has been built up and improved over the years … so it's been $$ here...then more $$$ there … and all worth it in my humble opinion.

I just feel this a question that's going to get a lot of people 'liquidated'.

Oops, I accidentally ordered something else today honey. I didn't mean to but Bear bumped me while my hand was on the mouse.

120g re start. Replaced old acrylic with new 1/2” thick. New lighting, pump, hours of figuring plumbing, sand, rock, wave makers, test kits, salinity checker, RO water filter, salt. Still looking for water barrels… using old stand that looks like new. I have a good 5k and don’t have 1 fish yet. . Luckily my wife is looking forward to it. I’m the one holding back on cost she’s the one that’s “just get what it needs” maybe more lights?
