    Man…. I always said if I was rich I would have a massive salt water aquarium in my house… I really enjoy aquariums but the work/cost involved for a salt water set up always scares me away.

    Same with me... and having to install an RO/DI unit with a container to constantly filter water, then mix salt water, keep the temperature... constant water testing. And to get a proper setup with a decent 75 gallon tank adds up to over 5 grand - closer to 10 after all is said and done.

    The cost and time is why I decided to go for a freshwater aquascape for my "high-tech" 72 gallon I'm setting up. I think these tanks are just as awesome as reef tanks, just in a different way.
