I need to be stopped... Since buying our house a year ago, we went from one 20 gallon long tank to two 55 gallons and 2 30 gallons - plus the 20 is still up and running (only has gold fish from our backyard pond for the winter).
Today I found a 46 gallon bow front and a 29 gallon tank on craigslist for $20 a piece... neither have anything with them, including no hood/light. I need to build a new stand for our living room to put the 55 gallon on the bottom and perhpas the bow front on top... not sure how I'll do it yet... I enjoy building stands... done it before... I also need to buy a hood for the bow front - I'm sure I'll have to special order it from one of our local pet stores...
With needing to purchase the hoods/lamps, filters, gravel, plants, and all that other good stuff, AND having to build the stand(s) it'll be a while before I get them up and going -
I'm thinking cichlids for the bow front - I have no idea what to do with the 29 gallon, but for $20 I couldn't pass the purchase up... Sorry salty friends... I don't think I'll be starting that hobby until I retire, and that's a ways a way yet...
My family is going to kill me!!!!
