that is the motherlode! you lucky s.o.b.!! just as good as hitting the lottery! hmmm. maybe not, but still good!!
I had bought what I thought was a 75gal bowfront off CL included wooden stand w/ doors, 2 AC110's, fluval 202 (old model), large sponge filter, 25lbs of gravel, 2 300w heaters, thermometer, fish net & 6 baby angels/1 pleco & a nice medium size ornamental bridge/rock piece. turns out it's only a 60gal BF. & they didn't give me the hood that they advertised. Deal is done once I walked out but I feel slighted I didn't get a 75g & they withheld the hood. I thought I paid a fair price & turns out maybe not. I emailed them & how surprising, no reply!
So I am happy you found your "mecca" of fishery stuff!

Oh and it gets better......I saw another ad on CL free free fish tanks. I figure its gonna be all garbage again, But I had to go look. I got a 75 gallon, a 46 gallon bowfront, 2 20gallon longs, an old scratched up 55 gallon plexi which buffed right out, food,nets,heaters,air pumps,water treatments, powerheads and ug filters......... and best of all a Rena XP3 and a Cascade canister. ALL FOR FREE!!!!!!! All in working order.
Plus 15 community fish in the bowfront, and a mated pair of Festae(Red Terrors) with fry in the 75g.
The guy was a real estate agent and sold the house he lived in and didnt want to bother with the tanks.......F*%#in incredible.

Oh you can believe that I am using all they things I have been so fortunate to accumulate. I set my girlfriend up with 3 big tanks. I have helped friends that needed bigger homes for their adult fish. I now have 6 tanks and a indoor pond going at this point.
I used my good fortune to help out my fellow fish keeping friends. When someone comes to my house and sees my set-ups and say to me......"I wish I had one of those" I go out to the garage and say "wish no more".
Spread the wealth I say
