So today I was cruisin through craigslist and found a 60gal tank, stand, lids, lights, and heater for $100. Thought that was a good deal, tank looked like new. I don't need the stand and don't want to try and sell it so I offered him $50 for the tank, lids, lights, and heater and he accepted it!  I think that's a killer deal. Tank measures 4' long 13" wide and 24" tall

Now to sneak it into the fishroom.   ::)  Do tell us how you do it.  ;D

Nice find, I found out that if i can put the new tank next to one already set up my wife will assume it must of been there.  Sometimes it's nice that she doesn't go into the fishroom much.

Got the tank into the fishroom without the wife knowing haha a. It's easy to do when I'm off and she works until 10pm

Anybody want a free, used, 125 gal tank?  You just have to come get it in late January.  I am keeping the stand to put in our new garage for pottery stuff on top of and inside.  We live where Winter is mild, usually.  Eastern NC, 30 mi. inland from the Atlantic.  Anybody want a winter vacation??
