Are you looking at buying a new tank?

 

Nope, I'm putting together a information post for others who are looking to start into the hobby. About how much it will cost them

 

I'm thinking about doing "compatible fish" and ~prices is anyone wants to help will finish the 5 gal section tomorrow.

While I do things it's a nice idea to give people an idea of cost on material.......this info is going to vary from state to state/ website to website....no?

 

I would disagree with many of the prices.

 

Most of the prices are found by looking through many websites, its not meant to be exact, just an about number for new fish keepers
