I found a wholesaler in the town of wallington that was closing his doors (retiring) after being in business for 44 years. He was selling filters and tanks SUPER cheap! Stuff was selling quick but there was quite a bit left. This guy had over 900 tanks. I bought (5) 20 longs, (6) 30 longs, (3) 40 gallons and a sh|tload of driftwood for get this.... $44 BUCKS!!!! Alot of his tanks had sticky notes on them with peoples names on them that are supposed to come and pick them up next week. I gave him my business card and told him if anyone bails on any of the larger tanks to let me know. He had a 300 gallon for $50!! If I had only been there an hour earlier that tank would of been mine. His stuff was selling super quick but there was still alot left. Granted, none were show tanks that I would put in my living room but definitely worth it if you are or want to become a breeder. If anyone cares to go and check it out the address was 18 Hathaway St. in Wallington.
 
Does he have any 40 or 50 breeders? I need one bad can hook me up with his number or something I will come tomorrow morning. I am in westchester Ny.
 
I'm there tomorrow. What time do they open/close?
 
He had more then 10, 15 and 20's too. I saw atleast 50-60 40 gallon or better tanks. Musta been 50 aisles with rows and rows and rows of tanks. The stock he had must of been incredible.
 
Like I said before these are NOT show tanks. He was a wholesaler. Tomorrow I'm going to pick up some of that CRS commercial cleaner to wash the chaulking off of some of them.

I almost cried. He had had sh\tloads of small pieces of driftwood laying all over the ground. people were steppin on it left and right.
 
Anyone who is interested in this stuff. CALL FIRST! There were alot of people there when I was there. I took as many as I could hold in my pickup. Alot of the big tanks were tagged as sold but he told me to give him my number cuz he can almost gaurentee some of those shmucks aren't going to come back for the tanks. I told him anything 75 gallon or bigger I would take em all. He's suppose to call me on monday.
 
Did they have stands as well?
