Just bought out someone's fish room...

[JeremyD]

A local guy, not 10 minutes away from my house was breaking down his fishroom and selling it off. Naturally I jumped all over the deal. Heres a rundown of everything I snagged.....

4 20g high tanks
2 15g tanks
2 10g tanks
3 2.5g tanks
18 "goldfish" sponge filters
2 lustar corner filters
7 stick on thermometers
1 gast air compressor
~100ft 1" pvc
~100 brass and stainless air valves
3 guppy breeding traps
1 python
Also, I picked up a 3 volume set in mint condition Baensh's "Aquarium Atlas", Dr. Axelrod's "Mini Atlas of freshwater Aquarium Fishes", and "Encyclopedia of live foods"


Grand total spent $220. Yes, I am quite happy right now I'll be back in a week to pick up the worlds most perfect terra cotta cichlid breeding caves as well as about 15 or so assorted south american cichlids. He still has some 10g tanks and 3 29's, but I already have more tanks than I have room for. Oh well, that, brings the grand total tank count up to 21. Whats a couple more?

I'm so jealous. I've been looking for a some cheap tanks in my area but all I found on my search were some small half gallon tanks. Good luck and have fun setting up your tanks.

Jeremy,

What a great deal! That's terrific. So how many tanks do you currently have up and running?

Jeremy,

What a great deal! That's terrific. So how many tanks do you currently have up and running?

I only have about 9 tanks running right now. I'm in the process of building my fishroom. If you look in the DIY section, theres a thread there showing the rack for my 10g tanks.

I have just about everything I need at this point. I'm just waiting on my new heaters (15 radiant 50 watters) for all the 10 gallons. They should be here today or tomorrow.

great Deal Jeremy!!!

how did you find out he was dismantling the room?

He was advertsising it on a local classifieds page. I stumbled across it when the ad was about 30 days old. I though I was too late, but by the time I got there he still had pretty much everything.
