SOME FISH KEEPERS ARE NOT RICH SO WE LOOK FOR BARGAINS OUTSIDE OF OUR LFS HERE ARE SOME I HAVE FOUND

AQUARIUM SALT- APX $2.00 GO TO DOLLAR STORE GET SEA SALT SAME THING GET DOUBLE FOR HALF PRICE

GRAVEL- APX $2-3 FOR 5LB BAG GO TO WAL MART AND GET A 50 LB BAG OF PEA PEBBLE OR RIVER ROCK OUT OF LAWN AND GARDEN FOR $3-5 A BAG

SAND- SOME OF US ENJOY SAND AS SUBSTRATE. IF YOU ARE LIKE ME YOU CAN DO A WHOLE 220 GAL FISH TANK WITH 2 BAGS OF SAND OUT OF WALMART THEY COST $2. FOR A 20 LB BAG.

ALGAE SCRAPER- $1.00 AT DOLLAR STORE FOR A SCAPER AMD THEY WORK BETTER THAN THE ONES THAT YOU BUY AT LFS FOR $5.

IF YOU LIKE SLATE ROCK YOU CAN GET A 20LB BAG FROM LOWES FOR $5.

HERE ARE A FEW I WILL ADD AS I THINK OF OTHERS PLEASE ADD IF YOU ALL HAVE OTHER BARGAINS THAT CAN HELP THE POOR FISH LOVER SAVE A BUCK

I ONLY USE THIS ON FRESH WATER AQUARIUM DO NOT TRY ON SALTWATER

Definately some great deal bro.


Keep in mind though.... aquarium/conditioning salt is very different from sea salt.

Yes, great tips but reading all caps makes me :crazy:. Thanks for the ideas.

Everyone probably knows this one but here goes:

Instead of buying water posishing material at the lfs, get quilt batting material (quilt stuffing) at Walmart from the arts and crafts section. I think I paid $6.99 for the king-size package. It's about 30 times the amount you get at the lfs for the same or just a little more $ and it's virtually the same stuff.
 
Yep, Nylond scrubbies, those 40gallon bins for diy w/d.. etc.

Good thread.
 
Craigslist....

Pretty much every fish thing I have comes from CL.

Great deals.
