I heard the iMac Aquariums run even more, about $300!
As for my betta situation, I can get one after a few more months of showing I am responsible enough to take care of everyone! I have to pay for him or her though, but my parents give me weekly allowance that is more than enough with what I have saved for the innitial costs. They want me to learn money responsibility. I might buy a female from Bettatalk or I also want to find an aquarium store in my area so I could see some cheaper boys, I don't really want a pair, just one to start.
Oh, and by the way, I love your new sig set! Which are your favorite tanks? What is the 1 gallon like that you keep Siam in again?
