omg another 55 i'm buying

[tropicfishman]

well i was able to get a 55 gallon and stand for 50 bucks, it had oscars in it but i didn't want them, i guess the girl took them to the pet store, my grandfather bought me the tank as a gift for fixing his computer lol its getting out of hand now, this is my third tank since december lol

Sweet! I wish I could find a deal like that!

 

[tropicfishman]

its a heck of a deal, its the walmart 55 gallon kit, so its the tank, hood lights, filter, heater, two bags of 25 lb gravel, couple ornaments and plants, a 5 inch red tailed shark, blue gourami and 2 adult sized oscars and the black wood stand that walmart sells, oh and a few chemicals. she wanted 200 at first but i laughed at her and told her its only like 225 bucks brand new for both of them, plus it needs alot of cleaning, so she agreed to 50 bucks, i have to drive inot the back woods of kentucky to get it...yikes lol

MTS strikes again! I am so jealous that I can't get a deal like that! Just kidding sort of....Congratulations on the tank.

yeah...reminds me of when I bought my 75gal just to see a 110gal in the paper for $110...about half what I paid for the 75gal. lol

 

[tropicfishman]

so do you think i should put my 3 tiger barbs, and red taile shark in this 55 after i match the same tempatures and ph levels in the tank there in now and continue to stock from there, or should i cycle the tank and just buy new fish, whih do u think is better?

 

[Zagz]

I'd cycle the tank and get new fish. JMO but half the fun is choosing new fish!

i have to drive inot the back woods of kentucky to get it...yikes lol

Makes me think of an old movie,

"Deliverance (1972)" with Burt Reynolds.
