Okay, I went to a LFS that was closing and bought a TON of stuff (tanks, filters, rocks, heaters, pumps, A TON of stuff)

So I went to another LFS closer to my house and I saw a used 125 gallon glass. I asked the owner and he showed me everything it has.

Tank, double door-closed stand
250w Heaters (2)
Fluval 404
Powersweep Powerheads (2)
Light

I asked how much and he said $100.00! I pulled out the card and I have ANOTHER new tank, ready to go.

Now I have almost 1000 gallons of tanks in my fishroom. I promise, as soon as I get it all together, I will post some pictures.

Okay, I got:

  • 2 150 Gallon tanks and the stands they were on ($75 each) stand was free
  • Total of 4 heaters at $5 each
  • 4- 40 gallon tanks and the stands they were on (stacked on top) $10 each, stand was free
  • 2 boxes of Lava and rainbow rock $20 total
  • 1 Fluval 403 $30
  • 3 Magnum HOT Canisters $15 each
  • Lots of plants, filter media $almost free
  • 6 Ice Caps and 2 ballasts $10
  • Amquel, NovAqua, Pimafix, Salt, Charcoal $30 for all
  • New and used gravel $free
  • 1 AC110 (small crack, works fine) $10
  • 4- 20 gallon tanks $5 each
After all was said and done, I spent less than $300 for enough stuff to turn my home office into a a legit fishroom.

My wife thinks I am:screwy:

Holy.. I wish I could get a deal like this, but then again we only have 1 LFS and if they went out of business I'd die.

Can't wait to see pics.
 
That is an awesome score!
