Keep your eyes open for the 1$/a gallon sale at petco!

I saw a ton of 20L and a few 40B. No 55's though, they said they were getting a truck in Wednesday and to look on Thursday for a 55. If they get a 55 in I will go back and get a 20L to set up a sump

I dislike 55s. Way too narrow IMO.

A 40b has more surface area than a 55... and looks nicer as well. So much more you can do with a 40b or 75.

Do they sale stands for the 40 breeder? Or did you make your own?

 

[mfdrookie516]

The one I went to today doesn't, but they said they only sell like 1 or 2 a year. Most of them do though I would assume. I'm going to be making stands for the tanks I got today though.

Just got a twenty gallon! Ahhhh I'm so happy right now! It included the light and a heater and a hood! It was a total steal for just ninety dollars! Can't wait to put some fish in it! Question though: do I cycle it simply by putting some of my filter media in a filter I already have or just get some gravel from my tank and put it in there???

You still need to give it an ammonia source.

 

[bruinsbro1997]

I know, thinking of putting in some raw shrimp...

 

[Mr. Limpet]

Got my 10g & 40b today and decided to wait on the 55g because it is so narrow, but I have till the sale ends on 7/16 to get it. I want the Aqueon 75E, but $180 for it is just too much to consider right now.

Now to talk my GF into letting me set them up in the house instead of the garage lol .

 

[JoeyGGGG]

I wonder if my parents will notice if I get one or two new 55 gallons.... Hehe

 

[George9]

I'm still tryin to get my dad to take me

 

[JoeyGGGG]

I have a car and the money just my dad is saying I'm stuck with my 10 gal ugh

 

[allaboutfish]

i went intended to buy a 55 gallon and they didnt have any!!!!!!! they dont get new tanks in until next wednesday either and ill be out of town until 2 days after that so then ill have to wait 2 weeks after that and the sale will be off so im probably getting a 40 gallon breeder.

 

[JoeyGGGG]

That sucks something Is better than nothing though.

 

[allaboutfish]

yea will petco let you reserve a tank?

 

[JoeyGGGG]

No clue..... I've only been to petco once. I'm more of a petsmart guy

 

[tlkng1]

Wish I could justify it but I have a 29, 38 and 40 already sitting dry besides the 10 and 20 running at the moment. Checked my local listing and sale is on through 16 July.

 

[ocean]

Ask if you can pay for now and pick it up when you get back. Worth a try.

 

[allaboutfish]

yea im going to tomorrow or the next day

 

[bruinsbro1997]

Oh I have to wait to start my tank in two weeks! My mom said that I can't start it because we're going to Hawaii next week and there's going to be no one to take care of the fish! I was like, "Mom! I'm not putting any fish in there! It's going to be cycling!" But she wouldn't hear it! UGH.
