If you guys do decide to do a NR you wont regret it! I was strictly cichlids before i jumped on the salt bandwagon and now i just cant get enough of my 10 and 29g salt boxes. Its not too much money to keep up, the salt is about 20-25 bucks for a good sized box that last for about a month of h20 changes if you do them weekly. The corals food and elements are kinda pricey but not too bad. If i had to guess, it cost me about 40 bucks a month with lighting and all? Just a guess cause i suck and i really dont know, Its not too bad though. All of the kent marine stuff that i buy to keep all the corals happy are about 8-15 dollars a bottle, i currently have (pictured below) and need more like Iodine sup and strontium, ect. Water_Baby yells at me all the time because i dont have like eight 55g drums filled with every type of goodness you could ever possibly have, but anyways. Hope this helps!
