Looking For....

[Spankmuffin]

Newbie here and I was looking to see if anyone around the central Iowa area, (preferably Des Moines area) had a 100 gallon tank, stand, lid, lights etc.. or bigger for sale that was in excellent shape and not all scrathed to hell. The perfect tank would be a 150 cube I call it. 4 foot long, 2 foot deep and 30 inches high. My sons current tank is to small and the fish have outgrown it.

Anyone have anything let me know please.

Thank you

Spank

No replies yet? Don't people from Iowa visit this forum? Seems a place with a wealth of knowledge and also anything you could want to buy. Hopefully someone has a tank they would liek to sell.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but Iowa seems to be a difficult place to buy/sell anything fish related.

I had a bunch of fish I was trying to sell.....I ended up giving a lot of them away. Unfortunatly I had to lend out tanks for friends to keep the fish in as well.

Good luck in your search!!!

a true hobbyist would move east coast or west coast to get fish,................. lol just kidding, good luck

Yea Iowa is sort of a barren wasteland for certain things but I thought maybe, just maybe someone would see on here what I was looking for. I suppose I could just go buy a "new" tank but I didn't really want to pay the mark up being that I am a wholesale director and know true cost on things. LOL!!!

Anyway, maybe someone will actually come through and see the ad.

DB junkie where are you in Iowa?

DB junkie where are you in Iowa?

I live in Clear Lake, work in Mason City, and have to drive to the Minneapolis airport for fish.

Yea I have seen that 180 tank in DSM area and it is all beat to hell. Not my cup of tea I cannot stand scratches. DB I live in Johnston just north of DSM and I just buy my africans from a local breeder in the area for dirt cheap. Just need a bigger tank so we can expand and keep more fish. That suck to drive to Minny airport. Blech...
