I started with a 40G and within 1 year I had a 40G, 24 nano and a 75G, I now only have the 75, but you see my point. Best advise I can give is to read read read and have lots of patience. As for equipment, if you do not have any yet, look onto forum classifieds, craigslist and recycler. People are always getting bigger or getting out and need to sell. Sometimes you can pick up some good set ups for reasonable $$'s. This is not a cheap hobby, but can be accomplished on a budget. Good luck, and keep asking questions.
