Hi Smithy and Welcome!

They say you can have a reef tank and a small fortune... if you start with a large fortune (giggle)

There are ways to keep hobby more affordable; I recommend used equipment or DIY or buying local... but it also helps to research and buy only 1x and not buying something then turning around a few months later and spending more to replace.

This is a good reference book type article for those starting out, if you haven't already found it in your searching:
