PLEASE HELP!!! 2 Aquarium problems

Err...no, I didn't realize that they started at 75 gallons. Here's the problem: the only space I have in my room would be 50"x24", and that's pushing it. Can I get a 75 gall with those dimensions??? Now, would the cost of a stand and hood add up to be more or less than $300? Because I'm kind of on a tight budget right now!!! Then I realize that I'm going to have to get all the accessories and whatnot.

Briggadane-- you live in OH and you're coming to Lancaster??? Dang.
 
Oh yea, about the fry:
All the fish have seemed pretty good about not even bothering them. (there's 4 mollies for those who don't know off-hand- 3- 1" and 1- 2"). The largest one is a Dalmation Molly and she is the aggressor of the tank, but the most she's done to the fry is chase them. There's about 12 of them (fry). They are officially 4 days old! I'm leaving them in the same aquarium since they seem to be doing fine.

But when I get the larger tank for our room, I'll move the mollies into the 15 gall and leave the 10 for quarantine...

I'll probably end up keeping 2 of the fry (making sure they're females though, don't need any more mating!!) All my mollies are females, and yes, I'm aware that they store sperm, but I'm hoping they won't have any more...praying, really... :-/

If anybody in South Central, PA wants some Mollies, let me know! Otherwise, back to the LFS
 
Okay, my ditzy butt just checked out the sale ad again, and I see the info wayyyy at the bottom with the details about the tanks. We'll see what happens. Gotta get some "hubby approval" too...hmph.
