Cost of a 29

[maxwellag]

It looks like a nice setup but it's a really high price. You could probably get a similar setup for less than $120.

I have shopped around quite a bit and that's the best deal I can find if I don't want to go used. I'll wait a while and see if it goes on sale in the near future.

Really I can get a 29 gallon for 150 with filter heater stand top lights and gravel for that why don't you look on craigslist maybe.

I live in Canada and I can't find a used one for less than 100 and a used one doesn't come with the equipment I want. Like I said earlier I hope it comes on sale soon.

That's what I want to do but I can't find only a tank they always come with lights and hood.

If I do Find one here is what I'll do.
T5 no fixture
Versa top
2 aqua clear 30
1 fluval m150 heater

If I may ask, why 2 aquaclear 30's? I have an aquaclear 70 on my 29 and it is more than sufficient.

My 29 will be an upgrade from my current 10 gallon. And on my ten gallon I have on ac 30. I also want to be able to put one of the acs on a quarantine tank if my sponge filter is already in use.

Oh, ok. But IMHO an ac 30 isn't enough filtration for a 29g if you did have to move one of the 30's to a qt.
Also, now that I'm finished adding fish to my 29g for a long while, I'm totally enjoying my 10g qt. It's heavily planted and home to 3 furcata's. Just a warning, the upgrade is great, but you will probably want to play with the 10g at some point in your future.
