My total is a little over 2K. I just bought a CO2 system too and 2-30g breeder tanks for my discus. Its hard not to buy anything :) Even if you have everything that you need, you'll still want to "upgrade", try new stuff, new plants, new aquascape. Stuff like that...

+1 you go to a pet store and see a fish you really like what are you gonna do say maybe next time or say its time for a new tank lol
 
since my previous post on the 15th of last month i have gone from 780 to around about 2000. this could be a problem :)
 
I've got about $350 into it so far just setting up our 29g. Just waiting for the tank to cycle to add fish. Looking for the stuff to start a planted tank for myself so I expect to spend another $1000 getting it going. In contrast, I'll spend at least that much this year on the garden and the wifes flowers. Spent $200 just today on growing medium and flowers for her hanging baskets.
 
On my 46g I'm sitting around 1700 so far. I told my fiancée my hobby wasn't as expensive as she thought it was...I think she's onto me.
 
Haha bad thing is now she wants to go with me everytime I buy something! I'm not sure if she just loves the hobby or if she's keeping an eye on me!
 
I was in a motorcycle accident in September of 2009 I got my payout in February of 2010, my wife said no new bike so I took a vacation and when I got back I ordered a custom tank... $4500 I then started on the construction... somewhere around August my kids started asking me when we were going to get fish... that's when I got MTS I got a 30g FW tank that was already running and set it up. I have been working on my tank and having ups and downs... finally this month I got fish in my tank. I've run out of money from my accident... I had $7,000 set aside for my tank $4,500 for my tank $1,000 for my LEDs then another $700 to replace the ones that broke and $1,000 for my Apex. Plus I have spent at least $500 of my own cash on various things... My wife now wants me to get a Wooper Looper (Axolotl) and she wants either a FW or SW puffer. So I will have 4 tanks when it is all said and done.
 
A staggering 5k that's right I have a 66 gallon tropical freshwater planted setup with co2 auto water change system and 34 fish from all over the world. God I love fish keeping

So far I am up to approx $4000Aud. My tank/cabinet alone cost $3000. Its a 6ftx2ft2ft in a jarrah cabinet. The picture that has only a few things in was from the day I got it. The other is what it is currently which in 2 weeks is going to have more plants added as it's still bare in parts of it
