A 25 might be good enough for a breeding pair of angels and nothing else.

I want to set up a 5 gal low tech planted tank for a betta. I have a friend with a 5 gal tank that he is not using, and said I could have it.. but it is tank only, so I would need a glass top, filter and light. I'm trying to price out components as opposed to buying an all in one- like...

What size tank is your 703B on? I'm also trying to figure out the best filter for my $$ for a tank build.

Same problem. I have been looking for a 75 gal for some time, while I keep finding used 90 gal tanks for great prices- same footprint but deeper. I already have a 56 column tank and don't want a deep tank again! It's hard to maintain a deep tank when you are short!

Why are there so few 60" tanks? I just bought one used, - 100gal seaclear acrylic tank. The dimensions are 60"L x18w x20h. I think those are great dimensions to work with. I'm amazed there aren't more tanks this size.

Does anyone know anything about old SeaClear acrylic tanks? I found a used 100 gallon SeaClear and stand for $150. The owner says it is about 15 years old. I haven't gone to see it yet, but it doesn't look like the seaclear II with the built in wet dry filter. He said it had an under gravel...

I have been looking for a good price on a used 75 for awhile, and haven't been able to find one. I did come across a 90 for a very good price.. but I am concerned about the height. I plan to do a fresh water planted tank, and I am short.. 5'2". How hard is it to maintain a 90 when you can...

My son has been begging for a turtle for his 11th birthday. I am not a big fan, as I know I will most likely end up taking care of it. I looked into turtles, and most require a huge tank. My 11 year old is not getting my 125 gallon... but it looks like a mud turtle doesn't get as big, and...

Just got a response from someone selling a 75 for $50. Maybe some of your luck rubbed off. Hopefully it is in good shape.

me too! I have been searching for a reasonably priced used 75 for about a month now with no luck.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that had a poor neglected tank. Sometimes life throws stuff at you. I am also going to get back into the hobby. Can I get a better look at your light fixture? Looks like you hooked 2 together? I am hoping to start a 75 planted soon.

Which 5 gallon tank did you use? My 7 year old daughter wants her first tank. I was thinking about setting up something like this for her.

Beautiful tank!

I will admit I have major multi tank syndrome. We just moved. I don't have room for a BIG tank at my new place. I'm selling my 125gal SW tank and hoping to get a 75, but may settle for a 55 for a rainbowfish tank. I may be able to fit one more tank in corner.. I really like Angels, but...

Only one Petco in the state got 75's in on the sale last month- only 2, and they sold out immediately! I may wait till the next sale, though...
