Um yeah - that budget is blown - hahaaa.God I spent that on a nano setup. I have a real issue.. excited to read this.
But if I cheat and say I spent the first $1000 I am still running at around $100 since. I can't believe how patient I am with it. But I know I will go over it once I order the new stand. I spent less than $200 on the tank and stand plus it came with rocks too - so I can't say it was a mistake. But yeah I budgeted in not needing a new stand and it is clear to me now that it's not the case
