This aquarium followed me home.....can I keep it? - Aquarium Advice

This is my new 100 gallon tank in its initial setup phase. There will be more driftwood, rocks, plants and a background in the near future.

I would say no, you can't keep it. I'll be contacting you shortly to properly dispose of it for you.

I like the driftwood. Keep us updated.

That is a nice piece of driftwood.

Jchillin · 06-24-2005, 10:28 AM

I agree with Fishyrican. This tank must be properly disposed of and I just happen to know someone that could help you.

Really nice Joe...that driftwood looks awesome!

Great looking tank so far. And I must say the wallpaper looks good with your decor.

**Fluff** · 06-24-2005, 10:45 AM

Looks great!! Wish something like that would follow me home.

krap101 · 06-24-2005, 01:27 PM

TankGirl · 06-24-2005, 03:58 PM

Well I don't blame you - I am sure you are running out of room for all the cool specimens you bring home!

Congratulations - it will be a stunning setup with that driftwood.

Lucky you

Would love to see pics as you go through your setup.
It looks beautiful already.
