Also when my BiL had a 6ft marine tank it was costing him nearly

It is a 6' marine tank, but it's been running 5 years and it's only recently
my electricity bill has gone up. Most pumps on the tank are about 5w each,
and only 4 of them in total. I'll check load though but don't expect it to
be much.


Ok, if you setup has stayed stable then you can obviously discount it
Of course what happened in the case I mentioned was him was adding a UV
sterilizer one month, then a couple of metal halide lights etc.
