Okay, so I picked up a 30 gallon off of craiglist for $80 with a stand, filter and light (and miscellaneous decorations that I probably won't ever use). This will eventually be my sump tank when I find a good deal on a much larger tank, but this will get me started.
I picked up a retrofit 55w CFL kit from AH supply to replace the 20w fluorescent in my hood. This is purely to keep the costs down. Picking up the substrate for a cichlid tank later this week, if not tomorrow. Also, going to get some rocks (tested with vinegar first) to put in there to give them some hiding places. Going to throw some plants in there along with 1-2 cichlids at first to get the cycle going.
Will update with pics.
