Hi Guys-recently saw an ad in my local penny-saver for tanks. 10gals. 5.00-20gals. for 10.00- Icalled because I thought they were cheap,and I'm always looking for new tanks for all the bettas.Turned out that this guy had a ton of tanks and equipment to go with it! Thought I died and went to fishy heaven! Anyway,I got 1 ten ,and one 20 gal with hoods and lights for 40 bucks! Then I turned around and bought a 75gallon! WOO-HOO!!! It wasn't quite as big as I would have liked,but hey it's a start,right? He has at least 3 more 75's,a ton of small 5-10-15-20 etc.and he also had a 40 gal. breeder that I was eying up. What I really wanted,was the 125 gal with everything including stand,for 350.00. I haven't picked up my big tank yet,and I'm kind of afraid to as long as he has all that stuff to sell! I don't think I can control myself!!!!!!!!!!

What a great find... how lucky you are!

Have fun filling those tanks with adorable fish!

Oh thanks!!! I can't wait!!!! Although I do dread the cycling part-always do !

I have to stop myself with my one 20, one 40 and one 60....but a client today offered her 75 that it just sitting in her garage. AAArrrrrgggghhhhh---I will not go, I will not go, I will not go.....where are my car keys?
Oh, and Devs--I just did the fishless cycling which you can find on this site, and I cycled in 11 days with no worries for the lives of my fishies!!! Used gravel, biowheels etc. from existing tanks!

Devs that is soooo awesome - I am soo happy for you!

Thanks Jenn,now all I gotta do now is finish up my 80hr. work week so I can go pick it up! You know how it is.....I wanted it yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!! Last night of work is tues.,so I'll probably get it sometime after I get home on wed. Oh-Thanks amysue,I have done the"cycling of the tanks" many many times without too much hassle,it's just been a while for a bigger tank,and I am being impatient!!!!

Wow Devs that is cool. Have you thought of all the new fishies you're gonna get? Congrats on the bargin.

Should I admit that I bought a couple before I even bought the tank,because I am so darn impatient??????????? I am so excited about what new fish I want to get that I'm wondering if the tank in my vision is allready overstocked!!!! I bought the 75gal,for a hundred bucks,and he does have at least 2 or 3 more of that size to sell,and there's still the 125gal. for sale......OMG>>>someone slap me!!

You're funny.
That's exactly what I did.
I would say that there isn't to much to stop you, except running out of room to put them all.

Or money.

This can be a very addicting Hobby.
