Thanks already looking and see good ads

Cool! But new ten gallons are like twelve bucks. Thats all I know.

Ok thanks do you know anything from buying on here?

A good target price is about $1/gal for new tanks and .50/gal for used tanks, bare tank only, up to around 55g or so. Bigger tanks and special designs like bowfronts cost a bit more, sometimes up to $1.50-2/gal depending on the style. As far as equipment goes, used equipment should be about 50% or less than what it retails at, if it's something antique and not in the market anymore than I really don't factor it much into the price.

What do you mean buying from here? Like tanks off of members? I haven't done that. I've bought fish inverts and plants.

On here there is a section for classifieds so I was just wondering I'm kinda new. I'm a newbie once it comes to fish. I don't even know what cycling mean... I got 10g I want some more and forgot how much it cost. I know basic things about fish and most vocab

Oh well researching helps a lot. Just read alot more about things and you will get alot more knowledge. If you have any questions, just post them.

 

[Fishie]

Ok thanks research where on here or web?

Petsmart has 10 gallon complete kits for $25, or at least they did last week. I think the normal price is $35, which still isn't bad. You'll need a heater, but it has a filter and lights.

Thanks if they still have it I will buy it. For my last tank I spent near 100$ for everything had cheap fish.

If you're looking for somewhere local, if there is a Petco near you, they usually have a dollar per gallon sale every 2-4 months on 10, 20L and 20H, 40B, and 55 gallon tanks. I believe they'll be rolling out another one for Christmas, though I'm not sure.

I guess I will find out thanks!!
