Cost per gallon for a planted tank?
29g tank...
tank and stand $ 140 setup cost $45 fish cost $100 plants $ 110 CO2 $85 cost, $24/year to operate lightly planted "darenkan" wrote in message .. . Hi I'm curious to know how much I might expect to spend on a new planted tank set-up. Is there a universally accepted cost average? (I've read in marine systems you might expect to pay $30-$50/gallon). I'm considering; Laterite,C02 guage and canister, VHOs and perhaps even MH... Thanks for any info - Daniel |

thats a high estimate too...I use diy co2 ($3), and once you get the plants..you
can sell your cuttings.... 350X_Rider wrote: 29g tank... tank and stand $ 140 setup cost $45 fish cost $100 plants $ 110 CO2 $85 cost, $24/year to operate lightly planted "darenkan" wrote in message .. .

No one buys mine, because I'm just starting out, and dont have enough plants to
sell...(all the cuttings from one tank are filling up the other) But many people on these newgroups trade the cuttings in at their LFS for cash, or store credit.
