So I'm kind of wanting to start a nano tank and eventually a reef. What tank would you suggest that is reasonably priced?
 
What is reasonably priced? 100-10000? I would suggest 40breed and up that way later on when u upgrade u can use some of the same equipment. Also check craigslist for good steals
 
This...if you are looking for something around 10 gallons. It's an all in one and the back chambers have room to accommodate a lot of equipment. Tank alone can be purchased for around $100
Video of the tank after setting it up last Friday

Around the 100-200 range
 
I believe, just equipment alone, I've spent around $500, then another $500 in live stock

edit: Extras: Lighting, protein skimmer, heater, powerhead, auto top off, upgraded media basket

What kind of protein skimmer did you get for it? Does it hang on the back?

I had a cheap jbj28 nano skimmer in my garage. It will fit inside the last chamber where the pump is

Only had it running for 4 days, so far so good
Oh duh that's right lol. I forgot you said you set it up Friday. I hope everything goes well with your tank!
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
