Cheap tanks

[rexo-r]

Anyone know anywhere to get good cheap 20-50 gallon tanks? The local fishstores an amazon are both asking an arm and a leg for it.

Local craigslist, kijiji, facebook marketplace? Those would be what id look at. Or local thrift shops sometimes if lucky

Where are you and what do you consider cheap?

I know there are a bunch of unwanted 20 and 29g tanks here, for example.

I just gave away a 20gal long w/ LED hood a week or so ago..

Keep an eye on local FB aquaria groups.

Other than that, watch for Petsmart, Petco and Pet Supplies Plus $1/gal sales.

Unless you want to drive across the continent, do mention your city/area/state. Like Noodles suggested look locally... lots of people still get rid of their tanks for next to nothing.

Better open a topic yourself here: https://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/forums/ac-marketplace-buy-and-sell.15/

Include how far you're willing to drive and what size you're looking for and how cheap exactly.
Who knows there might be members here willing to help you out.

In my opinion, the quality of fish tanks is the most important. You should refer to the famous brand such as Aqueon, Tetra, Marina, etc. Here is an article talking about the best 20gallon fish tanks
