Research what you really need rather than what you can get buy with, then you're just paying for crap only to shell out more in a few months. Also looking around for the best price in really good advice, online stores compete with everyone, pet stores don't have too. Buy a good fish info book so you don't buy fish you can't keep, saltwater fish are too expensive to replace, not like $2 freshwater fish.
