So i passed by a rummage/yard sale today, and saw an aquarium sitting on the lawn. They wanted $5 for it, but i took a look at it and the All-Glass Aquarium tag said it was a 1994. The silicone along the inside was pretty bad, but I figured I was looking for things to do with all the silicone I had (other thread). I was talking to a young girl. I offered $2, she went in to talk to her mom, came out, said coyly "$4?" in the "IDK, my bff, Jill?" tone. I said $3, she said ok. It was kinda cute cause I knew her mom would tell her "Ask him for $4 but take $3"

So i got a HUGE ten gallon for $3. And it came with a screen lid. O well. It's no 55 or 300000 gallon. But maybe one of these days. :irked:


:headbang2 Sweet i try to find aquariums at yard sales all the time. In my opinion 3bucks for 10 gallons is a good deal.

I got my 60gallon at a yard sale for $15
 
Well i now have a total of 6 10 gallon tanks, 1 5 gallon tank, and 3 2.5 gallon tanks.

I bought the last 2 2.5's and an incomplete set of golf clubs and bag (1 wood, 3 wood, 5, 7, 9 irons, and putter) for $14. Who needs a sand wedge anyway. I'll never hit that stuff lol
 
I stand corrected. Apparently all 3 of the tanks i bought today are 5 gals, i think. They are 16"x8"x10".
So i officially have 6 10 gals and 4 5 gals. 10 tanks for 80 gallons for $52.
Not gonna bother listing off the accessories like hoods, nets, gravel vacs, gravel, decorations, filters, stands, heaters, etc. that were included in that $52.
