Good day,

can somebody please tell me apx maintenace fee of the 50-70 gal salwatrer aquarium,

electricuty, salt mixes and etc exclude of course fish.

I am ready to spend a couple of thousand at the beginning, hopefully its enough,
but wanted to know mine following spendings.

Thank you guys for your help.
 
I have a 55gal....Monthly I spend around:

£5 on frozen food
£5 on fresh food (raw fish/octopus etc)
£3 on filter wool (not neccessary, I use it to "polish" the water)
Not sure on electric costs but it's in the region of maybe £10
if you buy water you'd need around £25 a month for changes and £2.50 ish RO depending on local prices
99p on rubber gloves as I can't resist fiddling
 
Hard to give you an estimate. It could go from a couple $100 too $1000's, depending on whats in the tank, what eqipment, what regimes you use etc. Its best to figure it out yourself using simple maths and prices from a local fish store ie. your salt, RO water, food etc.
