10g #4
This it my hospital/quarantine tank. I set it up as needed.
I GOT MORE TANKS! I just bought a 20g, 30g, and a 45g. I got an awesome deal on them, and I will use the 20g, and the 45g for the Bettas I intend to breed. The 30g will be replacing my Brothers old 10g. The 20g and 30g will be set up soon, but I don't know when the 45g will be set up.
What do you think? Not bad for a person on a very limited budget! Most of the stuff I have I bought used. Here are some of my best finds:
40g with everything except filter and fish(I have added quite a bit to the decor) ~ $80
3 10g's, stand, heaters and filters for each, 2 hoods with lights, and some gravel ~ $25
20g long with everything FREE
30g and 45g with more than everything $50
10g with everything ~ $5
20g with wood stand, filter, heater, and some other misc. items. ~ $30
