[wanted] Tank Of Any Size

[Joshwainwright]

I'm looking for a tank of any size around the Barnsley area.

With/without equipment + stand.
Any reasonable Price.
Any condition.


I'm just looking for a tank to set up to free a little boredom, will be putting it in the attic.

I did that once, put a tank in the loft. It was no end of grief, be it going up there daily to feed and water changes were a nightmare.

Good luck...

Does it not satisfy?

You don't see it (though it wasn't an issue for me, it was a breeding tank) and because it wasn't on any sort of stand water changes consisted of buying a 5m length of hose, leaving the bucket at the bottom (with my other half holding the hose there) and me in the loft holding the hose up top. Was a nightmare.

I don't really have anywhere else to put it though, eccept a 7m space in my bedroom.

But a small tank would look stupid there.

At least you'll see it. In the loft you a) won't see it and b) will struggle with water changes etc. Based on my experience I'd say don't go there, you'll regret it.

If you get a decent stand for it small tanks can look good wherever you put them.

I'd love to make a tank, but I'm no good at DIY.

Also I'm on a very low budget.

I didn't suggest you make one. I suggested you buy a tank with stand, which are cheap.

Whats your price range (total including filter etc) and what town/city do you live in? And how far can you persuade your parents to take you to pickup a tank?
Answer those questions and I'll see if I can find something suitable on ebay for you. Thats where I've got 8 of my 9 tanks.

Price range= £30 tank, rest slowly will make and add to.
