Which one?

I would guess the 5 foot reef cost me the most, but it is really hard to say. I always DIY my stand, filtration, hood and lighting so save lots of money there, but then go and splash it all on Tunze waveboxes and skimmers.

Most expensive would be the 65 gallon in the living room, $650 for everything, diy stand & hood.

Cheapest would be a 30 gallon I got for $3, homemade sponge filter, about $2 in materials, used heater for $2, $10 in wood for the rack if that much, and a couple dollars for the light diffuser panel on top.

I've got a couple 150 gallon tubs, $75 each, $25 for heaters, two sponge filters at $4, two box filters at $8, and 2 1/2 sheets of diffuser panel, $10. $244 for 300 gallons of tankspace.
