Well..
My father gave me a 50$ gift card for my bd, to a LFS I like to go to!
Yayyy!!
 
Now, my tanks are fully stocked like I want them to be. So no fish is going to be purchased with this.
I already have all my ferts and chemicals covered, lightning as well.. I'm really wondering what I could by with that card! :p
 
Any ideas?
 
More plants?
 
Co2?
 
Fish foods?
 
Test kit if running low?
 
Wood / decor?
 
Another tank

How about having some fish meds on hand? Perhaps an antibiotic or two and ich med, some metronidazole and perhaps and anti-fungal?
 
Or some fish food? You can freeze the stuff and its cheaper the more you buy.
 
Spare heater? Never hurts to have backup especially since all brands of heaters tend to be subject to failure to some degree.
 
If you are still at a loss, you can send it to me as I have no problem finding aquatic things to buy :p
 
I might go with some bloodworms and plants! All I need for plants now are narrow leaf microsword and they rarely have it available at my shop :(, probably would get some anubias nana tho!
I do have heater backups already for my tanks, and fish med is all covered already !
 
Thanks for the suggestions :)

Ask if they can get some in.  It's a gift cert, you can afford to wait a week till they receive their order, then you will have a phone call and be first to pick the best of the shipment! 
 
Need a special decoration, either a piece of driftwood, or a rock formation, something you would never spend YOUR money on, lol?  You said your lighting is all set, have you looked online at the new LED decorations?  That may be something new and different.  If you find one, ask your LFS if they can get one for you!
 
Let us know what you do!
 
Hehe! Actually, I have LED on my 20gal and 10gal, only my 46g is on t8 tubes. But a 36 in wide LED is quite expensive

Rock formations are all set already as well heh!
But yeah, I'm thinking of using that money for something I wouldn't buy myself :p
 
I'll go over this weekend and see what's up! :p
 
I just got a couple of Peacock Gudgeon recently, maybe I'll get breeding supplies!
Or I've been eyeing bolivian rams recently.. Not sure if they would do fine with my 7 neon tetras and shrimp (20gal high)..
Not sure if they'd decimate my shrimp population as well..
 
Plants is a good idea,
Any ideas for low light tall background plants?
:)
 
Barclaya longifolia, Aponogeton Crispus, Cryptocoryne Balansae
 
Aponogeton Crispus looks really nice!
 
Finally found what I'll be buying.
I'm going to get the dual ramp timer for my Current-USA Satellite +.
It's about 50$ and not something I would purchase, even tho I've been really bothered about the fact that I can't get the damn thing to work with a normal 4$ timer. Oh, yes it will close my LED fixture, but it wont turn it back on! :(
 
Well. That sucks, the ramp timer is 90$ in store! No way I can justify the price for what it'll bring me.
I guess it's nice as I will go get some plants.

No no I did not say LED lighting, I said look in to the LED decorations!  Like the LED bubble wands, and the LED color changing bubble rings.
