Really Cheap Aquarium

[odinthejd]

Tell your friend to look on craigslist. There will be great deals and if you look in the free there may be free fish stuff. Just use ctrl + F and a little search will pop up just type in fish or something and click next and it will show you all the things that have fish in the title. You can do this to save time.

Craigslist is great- got my 30 for 20 bucks. Built a fancy stand for $40, and went to the Hardware store and got a cheap sheet of acrylic to use as a lid for a few more. Lights the only problem then, but a shop light in a box can work wonders I've even used an extension cord with two plug in light sockets siliconed in place secured to the inside of a simple box made out of a 1x4. It's not the most effiecent set up as far as light out put goes, but it'll work in the short run.

Let's see, I just talked to him, and he has 75 bucks. How much would a new container, filter, substrate, and light cost? I'm giving him an old heater of mine to use.
