Cheap Tanks

[aimsley_87]

After i get back from my holiday in september, i want to get another tank for another male betta but i dont want to spend tooo much on the tank so i can then spend abit more on a decent filter and heater.
Where could i pick up a cheap tank from?
Any help will be appriciated.

Ebay is a good place to look, as most the tanks that are second hand come with filter, heater, and lighting, most are pick up only so search from the distnace you are willing to travel, At the mo on my ebay search results there is a Baby bi-orb going for around £15 they retail at around £100 i think.

Also have a look at Aquarist Classifieds. There are some great bargains to be had on there. Other good second-hand sites include Gumtree (http/<yourtownnamehere>.gumtree.com), and Stuff4Sale (http/www.stuff4sale.co.uk).

What size tank do you want, as I just got a really good deal on a 22l with pump and heater?

Well, i was hoping to get one about 45-50L as my main tank for guppies etc and then use my 35L for a betta tank. But im not allowed to get one until after my holiday which will be beginning of September. Obv i need a filter, light and heater but i want decent ones so im prepared to spend money on them and spend a little less on a decent sized tank...if that makes sense.

Ah. The tank I got seems a little small for what you want but still a bargain. Got it from my very good LFS. Was a 22l Aqauel tanks, filter, Heater and light, he chucked in some free gravel and a background. All for £39.99. I thought that was a good deal.

Yeah, i already have 2 35L tanks, one with Midnight, one of my males, and one with Sunrise, the other male. My 2 females are at a friends house until i can put them in the big community tank(i will be getting a few more females) Sunrise is a very placid male and he is in with 6 guppies, 5 tetras, 2 panda corys and 1 bristlenose pleco with no problems what so ever, whereas Midnight has only 4 panda corys and a pleco(James Tiberius Plec! ) becuase Midnight is a grumpy old man!
Yeah, so anyway, i want my females back(when i got Sunrise, i was told he was a she! so he was in with the 2 other females for about 2 weeks, luckily no casualties but as soon as i realised he was a boy, i removed the females and my friend is now fish sitting!)
When i get the new tank, i want guppies and mollies with about 6 female bettas. Will this tank set up be okay?
Sorry about the lengthy post.
