Downsizing tanks

[RaygunK]

I currently have 3 tanks going, 2-20g & 10g (fry only). I want to eliminate 1 20g. I've listed it on Craigslist, but any other ideas if i have no takers? That tank also has fish, about 15 of them, that i want to get rid of too. Anyone have any experience on how to phase out a tank?

I just gave my fish to the lfs:'( it was sad but i ha to do it..

That's what i'm thinking. I don't want to get rid of any of my fish, but it's getting to be to much of a time commitment. I guess i'll call and see if my lfs will take them. Then just store the tank until it sells on Craigslist.

You know, it is a much easier to maintain tanks if you only have one. Just buy a 55 gallon, and merge all 3 tanks into 1 larger one! Much easier...

That's not a bad idea! I'll have to think on that one...

Well, I've got a 55 gallon, a 10 gallon, and a 2.5, and I want more .

If you want to, I say keep the fry tank, but sell the other two and get a 55. Sooner or later you'll want more though .

Hope I helped!!

I usually give my tanks/fish away on freecycle.org.
