Really depends on what you want to do. Freshwater aquariums are easy to set up and take time to maintain weekly/monthly. Saltwater aquariums are hard to set up and are easier to maintain but the electronics are key to the saltwater aquariums so they have to be monitored properly. In terrariums and vivariums the set up cost can vary depending on the animals housing requirements and if you do a water section with fish and what not. Now depending on what animal you selects makes all the difference. Some species are hardy, while others are very hard to maintain and need delicate environments. Getting big items used helps a lot with alleviating costs and getting animals from known reputable dealers is very important. Watching to make sure the animal is healthy and having all the appropriate food and utilities to make sure the aquarium/terrarium is at its best at all times. Filters, heating equipment, lights, temperature sensors, etc. I guess for my tanks each 10 gallon cost $100 total? IF that.

Our turtle kept getting out of the cage so we set up a webcam to catch him in the act, and we did. We fixed the tank after that but it was pretty neat to see him moving around when no one was near. sneaky bastard. he's a ninja! TMNJ are real!!

He got out and fell 8 feet to the lower level, I don't even know how he survived that fall off the banister but we heard a 'thud' and noticed the turtle was missing. Went down to the second floor and there he was in shock on the floor. We picked him up, inspected him and realized he was completely fine. It was definitely insane, I didn't think a turtle or any shelled animal could survive a fall like that. We had a cage on the top so we didn't know how he could get out but we caught him in the act. I have the video from him trying to escape so I'll try to get that up.
