so a lot of people on here talk about the bad things people have on craigslist and there is a thread for good craigslist finds so why not bad craigslist finds?

I've got a few for you.
1. today i was surfing craigslist and saw a 5-6 inch painted turtle for sale in a 20 gallon aquarium!!! painted turtles need 90+

2. two oscars in a 26 bow front

3. 4 huge goldfish for pond or for making sushi!!!

let me hear some of the ridiculous things people are selling in your area!!!

55 gallon with stand and one strip light..... wait get ready.....

$300. !

On the good side though, I have found great deals, 40G $15.
three Fluval canister filters all for $50.
Cheap lights, and other related stuff.

So it must have a gold plated filter intake tube right?

I just found a guy who was selling a 40 gallon aquarium with a silver arowana, a peacock bass, a ghost knife, a hifin spotted pleco, and 5 red belly piranhas!!!! All those fish are too big that is crazy

No No, there was no filter with this, metal stand, tank and light, that's it!!!!
For 300. ! I think some people don't want to sell their stuff

Maybe he didn't want to sell it but his husband / wife / etc made the seller list it to see if it'd sell... and that's what they listed it at so it wouldn't sell lol.
It's happened before
