What equipment would you buy for a $150

[Grescho]

Hey Guys,
if you had $150 to spend on equipment for your already established aquarium, what would you buy?
just looking for a few ideas. The more the merrier

[TANGBOY5000]

A light meter or an in-line TDS meter for my RO/DI unit.

What do you already have?

[Grescho]

Just looking for general answers from all ends of the spectrum.

I'll start the ball rolling with:

Skimmer

If you don't have a skimmer, that would have to top the list!

oh man, so many things that would be nice, my kick as* setup needs to have the following

lights:
2-250w DE setup
2-48" VHO actinics

skimmer:
MR-2
waste collector

auto-top off:
tunze osmolator piece of mind

kalk reactor:
MRC or DIY

calcium reactor:
dual stage

temp control:
dual stage ranco controller
fans or chiller and
2-300w heaters

water movement:
tunze controller 7095
2- 6000's

return water movement:
2 penductor with either 2-way, or switch current...

extra stuff:
ozonizer + controller

and a few others, so if you are missing an important section, than that would be my choice,

you have some good suggestions there.
What do people use for Phosphate filtering?
Would a Deltec Fluidised Media Reactors be anygood?

man I knew I forgot something

the phosban/carbon reactor

reactor at marinedepot

this one works great and not bad at 34.99,

and deltecs, have fine products, but I don't think they come close to $35

RO/DI. that should be the first think you buy before starting SW. i will say even before a skimmer
