Was looking at tanks and some setups, and everything is like 5-10x the cost compared to tropical tanks. Is all of the equipment really needed?
Why does everything cost more with saltwater

Probably has to due with the fact that the equipment that is required is built to be way more reliable, have to do with the corrosion aspect of salt in water, and probably that there tend to be more pieces involved with a saltwater filter vs. a freshwater filter to handle other aspects.
Have you tried looking on eBay or OfferUp or even on here for some type of used tanks in your area or equipment?
