Equipment and Cost:
If I had it for a previous build, then it will not count. If from previous build, cost will say PB.
Some extremely nice people have given me stuff for free because they love how I am getting into the hobby at only 14 years old and they know how hard it is to get money and my mom says it's because I am just too cute lol. I am super appreciative of these people and I know it would be at least a year or 2 before I had all the stuff. But, I am aiming to put fish in by my birthday of September 8.
