Have you guys been to "glass cages.com"? I think that my hubby is ordering me a 75 gallon tank and stand for around $300 that we'll pick up in St. Louis, MO in March for our anniversary. What a sweetie. Have you heard anything bad about them? I'd hate for it to break - but they come with a 20 year warranty. Did I mention that my hubby is a MTS enabler?

I bought 4.7 oz. of Bio-Blend goldfish food for $2. It was 75% off. 8O

I'm planning to get a www.glasscages.com tank in May when they come around to my area as well. I might see about an acrylic though, if it isn't too expensive, and about 125 gallons. An acrylic would require less folks to help me get it in the house!

Dang, as a woman I hate haggling. This wasn't at a Petco large chain like that was it? Probably an LFS?

 

[spellweaver9]

Sati-- i hate haggling to but sometimes i just cant shut my mouth-haha i got it at a store called pet depot- i live in alabama, i think they are only in this area.

 

[mgkaelen]

man, why don't I know how to haggle!!

 

[LAGlocker]

Pet depot? I live in alabama my self, and have never heard of the place, but I am not sure where in alabama you are. Of course, here in mobile, there is one, what I call, real pet store, then of course petsmart. Also have a smaller store that stocks some fish, but I dont shop there much. The one store I have found I can bargin with them alot, get them to drop prices, you name it. Today even I took back a light I had bought 5 months ago, and they replaced it and upgraded it for free. So I basically got the new light for half of what they sell it for. Now thats what I call a deal.

 

[spellweaver9]

i am near muscle shoals and florence alabama-good deal on the light!!
