Aquarium Advice Newbie
My brother is giving me a 75 gallon tank that he planned to use for his iguana but never did. It has a wooden stand, and a wooden top...
Problem is its just the tank. There are no top glass peices (called canopies, I am guessing?) and lights. I am sure the answer to this is quite simple but I am not really sure what to buy to replace these.
I looked at the canopies online, they are quite expensive, is there anywhere else to find them at a better price than google? How do I know the right size to buy? I do not have the aquarium in my possession just yet (in a storage unit far away), so I cannot measure. I know the aquarium is 75 gallons, the longer tank, as opposed to the higher 75 gallon, and there is a plastic strip that runs down the middle. So I guess I need two glass canopies as opposed to the long one?
Is there a place that sells the glass parts and lights as a deal? Is there somewhere that sells them used for cheaper?
I'm moving in a week, and want to transfer my parrot fish (in a 30 gallon tank) into this tank so I was hoping to order the parts online or buy them before I move, because when I move is when my brother will deliver the tank.
I hope this wasn't too confusing!
