Hi I'm starting my own progression thread! So far i bought a used 70g for really cheap so i'm nicknaming this my budget tank! I'm buying everything in pieces! The tank is no show tank its not store bought the guy put the rim on himself no bottom rim and really scuffed up and tinted glass on the back and top for braces with a 28" gap in the middle.
Here's my tank just the tank! its a 71g to be exact 48"x18.5"x18.5" didn't take this pic right from the beginning it was full of sand that I cleaned out

i just bought wood and screws today to build the stand hopefully tomorrow.
so far costs
70g tank - $70cdn
penguin 150 - free from friend
aq70 - $30 used (regularly $70 here so i thought was a good deal)
wood and screws - $22
Still need:
Heater
substrate
decor
light (will probably shut down my 29g for now and use that light)
canopy (probably get a glass one)
Updates will come when i get more stuff thanks for watching let me know what you think
