You know, it's something I just haven't seen around. I'm not finding much for results online; one place for $70 and another for $115.

If you want a tank that doesn't take much work, I'd recommend selecting simple species under low, even light. Something like a row of T8's in the 1-1.5wpg range, skip the picky ground covers, head for ferns and swords. With some CO2, heavy feeding and weekly dosing, you should be able to work your self into a low maintenance tank.

If there were a way of keeping advanced species in mid to high light with minimal upkeep for low prices, I'm sure we'd all be headed that way. As it is, there are trade-offs depending on your goals. What are you looking to accomplish? What sort of plants would leave you satisfied with your tank, how difficult are they, and can you meet their needs?
