I came to work this AM and as I was getting ready, the other laborer I work with told me he saw a "big long" tank on the side of the road. I let him use my car to pick it up thinking that if it has a cracked glass or something, I could always repair it.

He came back and it's a 60 gallon. As soon as I get home, I will clean and scrub it well, and do a leak test. I have to perform maintanace on my other tanks today anyways (clean substrate, wc, test chemicals, ect), so today will be perfect with the new addition.

Not sure what I want to do with it. Possibly move my painted and red eared slider turtles to the new one and put small fish in the current one with the turtles, or keep the turtles where they're at for now. Either way, I need a new filter, heater, hood, ect. Now I have: 65 Gallon, 60 Gallon, (2) 10 Gallon.

I need suggestions everybody. And I'm thinking freshwater.
