I was on craigslist and i saw this 300g tank with stand for $300, it's never been used and does not include filters and lights and it may need to be re-sealed. I'm thinking should I get this or not? It would use all of my birthday money that I was just going to get a 55g with and use the rest for a new cd player in my car. So guys think I should blow all my cash on this fish tank or just get my 55g and a new car cd player?

hells to da no get a 55 delux kit that comes with everything and you will be good to go in three days
Yeah it's a 300g there was a pic included, well my problem is i do need to upgrade my piranhas and I would want to use the 300g for something like an aro, or something else bigger than my piranhas. I think that the 300g would be a little much for 3 red bellies.jmcmanus5;4374756; said:
Get the 300G for now and have the red bellies in it. They get a different tank down the road for the red bellies and do something else with the 300g
Where I live, 55g normally go for $300 or so (sadly)

why didn't I think of that?! Thanks man 
The problem is that you said it would take all your money to get it, but it sounds like it needs some serious work and a lot of extras that you won't have the budget for (pumps, plumbing, sump, heaters, lights, etc.).
I know this is sacrilege (who on MFK WOULDN'T want a 300??!!), but what about picking it up, resealing it and cleaning it up, then selling it back on craigslist for $1000? Then you could pick up a 180 with all the gear and still have all the money you'd need to get it working like you want AND you new CD player?
