Free 500g tank
 
I just saw an add for a free 500g aquarium with stand. It's all glass and located in Innisfail... As much as I would love to get it for myself, I couldn't fit it in our place.

However if someone else wants to pick it up for themself, go for it! Maybe if someone could help me find something for myself (between 50 and 100g) and relatively inexpensive, I'd be indebted.

Already contacted them when I saw the ad last night, super excited. I think it's more like a 240g or so.

Three guesses on what I'll be doing when I get home?

lol I thought someone would act fast on that! I SO wish I had the room for it... any chance you're looking to upgrade to this one, and might be looking to get rid of another one? :lol:

haha, you get what you pay for. I would never in a million years cheap out on something that could destroy your house in a second if it fails. I also wouldn't setup something so elaborate just because one of the cheapest components was free.

Nothing in life is free, everything comes at a price :wink:

1. Watching TV.
2. Making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
3. Putting on the skates and taking the dogs for a walk.

I actually just want the tank for the glass. It looks to be pretty small so I'm thinking a good sump tank (after being resiliconed), or it could be cut down to make some of my smaller tanks I need. I definitely wouldn't be putting that up as a display.

Wow Ryan...that is really pretty creepy...1. yes 2. yes, and 3. yes

The 180g? Yeah, it will be going to a new home, or being disassembled for re-use one the big system is up.
