Making a cheap Quarintine tank

LOl what I meant by $50 for the tank, is $50 for just the tank, no lid, no filter etc, just the tank.

Yeah, I couldn't even set up my daughter's 2 gal tank for under $30 and how many 5 year olds need a $30 fish tank in their bedroom? I guess it depends on how popular fish are where you live. I guess if they are not popular you can get a cheap tank. But not around here.

I think your rubbermade set up is very cool.
 
Just want to say for some people its impossible to get a ten gal for 10 dollars, I'd be hard pressed to find one under $50.

I've purchased new glass 10g tanks at petco for under $13. That is tank only not a complete kit. Yard sales are an awesome place to get complete setups for just a couple bucks, even if it's old used and dirty, it probably works like a champ.
