Cost Of Running A Tank?

[promithius]

Hi all, i was wondering if you could all help me out. im really bad at maths and i cant for the life work out how to calculate how much a tank would cost to run per year. i have a general idea of things, such as:

Lighting is on for 12 hours per day average
Heater only runs for 30 mins out of every hour, i.e 12 hours per day
each kwh costs 10p average (not sure on the exact figure bu i know its around that)

Anyne able to help me work this out? i dont have my tank yet, but i am getting a 2ft kit for my birthday, anyone know the average wattage for the equip for a tank that size?

Thanks for your help!
