I would have to disagree this is not a rich persons hobbie it’s like any hobbie you can make it as cheap or expensive as you want it too be
Exactly. I think the premise that it's a hobby for the rich only serves to further the OP's sentament. Black box lights, cheap Chinese DC pumps and other budget equiptment is routinely bashed, yet there are some absolutely stunning tanks that use this equiptment. You don't need a tank controller, a $500 sump, $1800 worth of designer LEDs, thousands of dollars worth of equiptment, $800 Gem tangs, and "designer" corals to have a nice tank, and I think a lot of us who geek out over the hobby get lost in the marketing hype and forget about this.
