Walmart sells a ten gallon kit with filter, light bulbs, hood, sample food and water conditioner for around $45 after tax, and a 20 gallon kit with the same for around $80 after tax. They do not advertise this on their website but they do sell them. They are the cheapest kits I’ve found! Definitely worth the money.
Please do not use fish to cycle your tank. Look into the fishless cycle. You can do this with pure ammonia or fish food … or used substrate or filter media, however if you use old substrate/media you risk introducing unwanted contaminates/diseases.

ok you could get a 10 gallon starter kit from petco but its a little bit more then 100$. Or if there is a walmart nearby they have a 10 gallon alone by it self for 13$ and then search on the internet for a hood
