Sometimes i dont even know how i come up with money for the hobby. Even though im broke i make it happen.
When mine was up i was calculaating about $28 per month with food, salt, re agents, dosing elements and electric.

Water changes alone cost me about $15 in salt, plus whatever rodi costs. Then the electricity has to cost about $20 or more. My fish eat a package of nori in a month, so that's about $6 right there. There's no way this hobby costs me less than $60 per month, and that's months when I don't spend money on corals/additives/equipment/fish. Its got to be over $100 on average if you add that stuff in. I justify it buy telling myself that my car is paid off and I hardly ever drive so I spend no money on gas.
I hardly ever buy fish and I'm nearly maxed out in coral, so it's all maintaining from here....which is still somewhat expensive.

my closest estimate is the entire reefing system to date has cost me $12. Salt, electric, coral, all in for $12.
Or possibly I never actually want to know the real number

I had a fowlr from 99 to about 2012 and kept it reasonable. Then I decided to get into coral and it went to a whole new level $$$.
