My background is a 180g fish only and a 25g reef tank. I had the FOWLR running for about 4yrs and the reef about 18months

I guess 2K is doable with a lot of used equipment and very little livestock.

But just to throw some numbers out..

$600 75g tank
500-1K in led lights
500 in-tank pumps (2 mp40 $800+)
400 skimmer
200 return pump
200 used sump
300 stand
200 dry rock
$$ dosing equipment+test kits
200 cheap DI water unit
$$$ livestock.

Prices can vary greatly on budget. It is very easy to go overboard.

LiveAqua.com is a cool site for livestock.
