well this may not seem like much to some of you but i am estatic to anounce that i just purchesed a 10 gal with everything for the very low price of 7 dollars and a hood for my twenty gallon for the dirt cheap price of one dollar and alot of other great buys that have now broke my hobby budget for the month lol...I was reading my local bargain sheet and saw an add stating that a local pet store was going out of buisness ...well i loaded up the kids and off we went ..i wish i would have saw the add yesterday they let a complete 150 gallon with stand go for 100 bucks everything with it ...i was devastated to watch it walk out the door as i walked in but am still setting up my two other tanks now joyfully and am heading to having my house look like a lfs ..lol just wanted to share my joy with people who dont think i am excentric ..lol so now i can have all the fishies i have been eyeballing in the stores without having to decide which tank to set about doing :dance first :dance :dance yeah ...

Congrats!! I feel your heartbreak on the bigger tank :( . If I would have been a couple days quicker I would have gotten a 200g for 75 dollars :( !!! So what are you going to keep? Busy getting the cycling started?!!? I am up to 3 tanks at the moment, Not quite an LFS, but I saw a few of the PRETTIEST bettas today.... :rolleyes:

Congrats, sounds like a good deal. Once you start, it's hard to stop! I'm up to 6 tanks now (7 if I count the 2.5) and there's no end in sight. There's still plenty of room left in the house ;)

lol congrats from me as well. i am also @ 6 tanks and running out of room(but still a nice spot for a 125 heh). im almost considering charging ppl(including family of course) admission to view my aquariums ;) have fun. 100 bux for 150g+ is an awesome deal, sorry it didnt work out.
