I went to this store in La Mesa, CA called Fountain's and picked me up a 30g tall and some livestock. Got the tank itself with light and lid for $65, which I consider to be a great price. I've only ever seen overpriced 30g talls so when I saw the $35 price tag I snagged it. I also picked up 5x 1" skunk loaches for $1.50 apiece, and a 1.5" candystripe pleco for $8. Super....duper...stoked. I know the skunks can get to 4" but I do have my 100g to throw them in at that point in a year or two. The tank will be hardscaped (driftwood, rocks) with floaters for the top-level swimmers I plan on getting. I took 20 lbs of sand from my 100g and put it in for bacteria's sake, and am running an old penguin 200 I had with some filter media from my established ac100s. Picked up a 100w heater for cheap as well. It's nasty and full of sand but here's a crappy cellphone pic of the tank so far:
I'll do a proper stocking and update thread but I don't have my middle and tops swimmers figured yet so it may have to wait. Either way I'll have more pics tomorrow! Thanks for viewing!
