blizowman1 said:I'll say it how it was said to me a freshwater planted tank can look anyway you want it to. So so so many different ways to look. Saltwater.... It's always sand rock corals fish. The rock turns purple and the sand is beige lol. Sure the fish and corals give you color but there is only so many of each everyone has and it's easier to flush a five dollar fish throw away a 10 dollar plant than it is to flush a 20- 50 dollar fish and the same for coral.... DIRT PLANTED ALL THE WAY. Plus I've really come to love the fact that the plants are grown from my care
blizowman1 said:I guess I just like the cost of a planted tank against a reef lol I know how much my dad spends he doesn't tell mom but i know lol way more than I'm willing or capable of spending that's why I stay planted lol

ryan-peddle said:On my planted 75 I spent around 6000$ but I bought a complete reef package for 3500$ my lights alone on th planted was 1800$ so depending on how In depth you go you can fork out big money either way

Convict2161 said:I second that!
ryan-peddle said:It's not that fantastic a work in progress but things are way more expensive her in nova scotia
The lights are 2 Aquatic Life

TankMan said:Hmm. Is it true that stuff lives in the sand?
Nu-Nu the eel said:Lol what do you mean by that? Tons of critters live in the rock and its very interesting to look at. In freshwater there really isnt much to look at unless they are pond snails... :/
