Any idea?

[stephens0813]

So I got this tank with a bunch of stuff from someone for $200 and was wondering if it was wroth it. I have pictures of everything minus fish but those are
4 tiger barbs
2 rainbow sharks
1 peacock eel
The tank is a bowfront but idk how many gallons it is. In the picture of it that is my standard ten gallon next to it. Any idea how much it is? It also came with a aqueon filter a heater and a air bubble machine. With some decorations.

There's a tank calculator (google it) and put the measurements in. Great looking rock btw. I'd say you got a good deal.

Here are the fish.

I will google the measurements and let y'all know what I find.

Looks like an Aqueon 26G tank with the bowfront.

Ok thanks.

I'll second the guess that it's about 26g. Looks like $200 was pretty steep for what you got, especially since the fish aren't suited for a tank that size. Sorry.

Dang that sucks. Are those fish too big for the tank?

 

[BigJim]

If they're not already, they certainly will be. I wouldn't put an RTS in anything smaller than about a 40g. The barbs will also need at least a 40g as they're a rather boisterous fish. The eel will be ok in the tank.

You can always try and trade them at you LFS, or sell them on CL.

Yeah those barbs are not even close to full grown..they are going to outgrow that tank..and the 2 sharks will probably start fighting if they aren't already so watch out for that..Petco will take what you don't want and adopt them out for you
