got a free tank today!

Well havent gone and picked it up yet but someone is giving me a free 30 gallon tank. Posted on a freecycle group and 2 minutes after it was posted to the group someone responded. So hopefully there will be a few more responses before I go to pick it up. 10k members in that one group so I am sure there will be a few more atleast.

kool, what u putting in it m8?

 

[wckdkl0wn]

not really sure yet. I live in a really old house so I needed a semi small tank to put in my bedroom. Could maybe go 50 gallons but even then it might be iffy. Floors are all hard wood and nothing is level at all. I can put a marble on the floor and it will roll out my door and into the hallway lol. Not to mention when the train goes by my room shakes.

Big tanks go in the basement.

Anyone have any suggestions on stock?

Congrats on the new tank. As far as stock goes, it all depends on what kind of fish you're interested it. Take you time, and do some research on different species.

Never heard of freecycle till now. Just joined the one in my area. Maybe I can score some large tanks.

I might be picking up a 125 gallon for $100. this was the ad.

48 x 24 x 24 125 Gallon with dual overflows, on a stand that I built (very strong) comes with an Amiracle wet/dry filter and a protein skimmer. Haven't used it in 4 years but stored in the house due to the weight (very heavy).
