i saw a 90 gallon going for like $400 by me. thats about the median in my area for 90 gallons.

800 bucks is about 593 euros. I couldn't even get the tank over here for that. My 180L (46USG) set me back 500 euros on its own without anything else.

My sympathy!

Wanted To Try Everything Online Etc..but tank = no way..and fish = to expensive on ship.

Also tried to act as if tho i had nothing to use. Im missing a python or some sort of thing to do water changes but i supposed if we wanna get technical i could sell the filter that comes with the 400$ Deal!

Wow...250 neons....

When I went to Shedd Aquarium in Chicago they had a cool amazon biotype that must have had 2000 neons and part of it was lit and the other part looked like under a tree root so it was dark an it was the coolest thing I ever saw.
