55 Gallon Fish Tank Setup Price?

I am hoping to move up to around a 55 gallon fish tank but it would be very helpful if I could get some prices for a new one, not a used one. I think its around 0 for just the fish tank at Petsmart, but I don’t really know the prices of it at other stores, like Pet Supplies Plus. Any other information or tips on buying a nice one will be helpful.
And if anyone reading has information about Red Blood Parrot Cichlids on keeping them or cool things about them please tell me.
Thanks

$200 sounds ballpark for that size.
$50+ for a filter.
$40 for a heater
Probably another $30-$50 for gravel for the bottom of the tank
Hoods are spendy so you’re looking at probably another $50 there if your tank doesn’t come with one already.
And then fake plants or live? If live they can go from $4 to $10 depending on bunch, potted, variety etc. per plant. Fake are probably somewhere in that range also.
Tank rocks and what not go for $20 upwards for the bigger items. Even some of the small stuff can easily be $10 per item.
$3 for a floating/sinking therometer.
You’re looking at possibly an easy $400 here. Another $100-$200 for a tank stand (depending on the style and features you like) if you don’t have one yet. And none of this counts for fish yet.
And I know nothing about Red Bloods. Sorry I can’t help you there ^_^
Best of luck.
