One Gallon Minibows

[Synirr]

I just got my first 1 gallon minibow and wanted to share a pic of it... they're the cutest little tanks ever! I think I'll buy one every time I have some extra cash until all my bettas have one
Here's Yura in his new home (previously in a bowl):

How cute !!

Very nice! I too FINALY found a 1 gallon minibow the other day at a local walmart, I got the same color as you havent set it up yet, I don't really have a fish to put in it, oh darn guess I'll have to get another one, shucks.

I've been looking for them everytime I go to Wal-Mart... can't find one!
They had one at my LFS but it was $48.00!!! How much was yours?

14.44 at wallyworld

Yep yep, about $15 for the 1 gallon. I have a 2.5 gallon as well which looks rather nice, but I think it was somewhere in the range of $25. Mariah, I'll never know how well the UGF works, since I don't even bother to try cycling anything as small as a 1 gallon... 100% water changes for me. I just think the bubbles look nice coming up the tube, and it doesn't cause enough current to bother anything so I leave it in there.

 

[Kara101584]

I want one! Or two! My Wal-Mart better get them soon!
I'll need something to put Lil' in when he comes home!

Just buy it online... it's so much easier... although I can't seem to find the 1 gallon version.

here's a cute curved front 1.77 gallon tank for $16.99

Here's a hint for buying stuff online. As an example, let's say you're shopping from petsmart.com. Before you check out, go to www.google.com and put in "coupon code pet's mart" This will pull up websites that have coupon codes, and usually you can find something that will give you 10% off or free shipping or whatever.

Hummm, very good idea. Never heard of that one! I'll try it out now.

Yeah when i bought my new 25 gallon sea clear acrylic tank and the fancy smancy Eclipse ii hood with the biowheel with it, I was about to save about $18 with a coupon code. The coupon code thing works for lots of online retailers. My sister uses it all the time for GAP and Banana Republic.

Oooh, coupons!!! I LOVE my 1 gal minibow. I also have the blue one. (I wanted the purple one though...) THey are so cute. Jimmy loves his!

You can get them at Petcetera in Canada - they're not called minibows, they're petcetera brand but it's the same thing. I got mine at one of they're supersales for $14.88 - so i got 4

I havent seen any 1 gal minibows at Petcetera in Canada. But wait what are they called?
