I don't have as many tanks but mine is around 250. Not too bad, but we will see when i move next week.
Does any one have the lack of outlets problem? haha


Yeeeup. Most of my outlets have a pair of powerbars plugged into them...
 
i usually hit the 500 range in the summer. i have to keep the ac at about 74 degrees to keep my tanks from going over 82
 
ha when I was living in my little house along they were $20-30 a month, had an energy-whore roommate for about a year and they jumped up to $100...$120 was the highest. All about the LED's and CFL's

$150 with two 150g and 20g
Same here but with a 180,60,55 and my 30 gallon feeder tank.
 
are your guys running anything special because i heard sump systems can run a bill up along with canister filters

why so high. i know a guy who has 4 tanks running and with his house he only pays 150-160

My electric bill is high for several reasons:

indoor pond pump
10 fish tanks with 2 heaters, and 2 AC's on each.
Lights for the tanks (8 hours a day)
2 Hi Def Tv's (which hubby leaves on- ugh!!!)
Industrial de-humidifier
Heat Pump/AC
 
wow i was getting worried about when i set up my 150 with 2 emp 400's and 2 300 watt heaters and 2 basic aquarium lights
