I went and sold my 10 gal and upsized to a 20. So now I'm the proud addict owner of a 20 gal , a 15 gal and a 10 gal. .... I'm afraid to say, my 10 gal is on the verge of growing into a 25-33gal. tsk tsk.......:twitcy:
FYI I haven't seen any more Blue Mickey Mouse fry yet. I swear she's just not done yet though.. she can't be... she's still huge and with a big black Gravid spot... hmmmmmm:err: She's playing tricks on me....

I agree, but financially I have to work my way up. I bought my 10 gal for $15 and sold it for $45.Then I bought my 20 gal for $50. If I can keep doing that, i'll be in a 90 gal in no time at all...LOL

You got $45 out of a 10G?! People are lucky to get $25 most of the time, even with all of the trimmings. Good 4 U :smile: .

I planted it with the baby plants that multiplied in my tank and added in an ornament and some decor stones.. looked really nice. Also added in two fish.

Must be Island prices...lol. Couldn't get a decent amount for a tank over here if you tried. Even with a filter, heater, etc, you're lucky to break $30 on a 10G.

It did have lid, light strip, filter, gravel, plants, one ornament and 2 fish. So it had pretty much everything they needed to get started. I'm selling my other ten gallon maybe today also for $45 and upsizing to a 25gal tonight. I have a lot of fat bellies around here and a lot of fry to house by the looks of things... The two lyretail females are HUGE now and I can see the eyes through one of their gravid spots. It's very cool. I just want to make sure I have enough space to house everyone properly to keep it healthy. Everyone recovered nicely by the way. Things are getting back to normal... FINALLY!!! I was holding my breath for a while.:spinny:

Seriously, I'm moving to the Island to sell my stuff...lol...You'd be lucky to get that much for a 20G with all the trimmings here. I paid $30 for a 20G long with hood/light in mint condition.:D
Glad to hear that everyone is doing better!

:laugh: Ok, so the secret's out. Sell in Victoria and only buy when I come to Vancouver. The 25 gal that i'm getting tonight with stand is going for $70. And the 33 gals around here start at 150. :confused:

The 33G came with big caves/deluxe ornaments, gravel, fish, pricey heater, filter, hood/light & stand, almost a year old: $120. He would have taken $100 if the heater hadn't been just recently purchased and expensive.:D It still heats my 90G today in fact.
The 90G, stand, etc., I bought new and do not wish to discuss it :wideeyed: :laugh: .

That's it, i'm moving to Vancouver. I'm going to run these for a while and then upsize again of course. I want to get them planted first and get a good price for them. I have enough room for now too and don't have a need to upsize for prob at least 6 months.
Besides, i'm cut off.. .I cut myself off tonight after picking up my new (used) 25 gal...LOL so now the list is 25gal, 20gal, 15 gal and 10gal...LOL oops... okay ,that's it for now..... :realmad: :laugh: :err:
