Wow, get away from the hobby for a while and things sure change

I could go with something bigger for the tank, Plenty of room in the basement now, thats the main reason I went with the cube in the condo is it fit nicely into a corner of our bedroom. I could eaily see myself with a 90+ Gallon tank, I guess I'm just trying to find something I can get for a decent price ($100-200). The clown loaches are still pretty small considering they are about a year and a half old, maybe 6" at the biggest, I'm sure their growth has been stunted due to the fact they are in a 40 gallon tank with 6 parrots that have stayed relativley small themselves. I'm not sure how many loaches are still left in the FW tank, that was always the Mrs' tank and I never paid too much attention to it myself.


Good to hear the rock may be in great shape, I have not had any light on it so that is why I have feared the worst, I have not pulled it out of the pail in almost a year since the move allthough I have been topping off the water and changing small portions when I can.

I actually feel really bad that I have not done much more with my tank sooner. I think when you move you just get so tied up in fxing up the house the way you want it (we went though about 6 months of renos) and with the baby on the way that has been priority #1.

Does the bin your rock in have any heat/water movement ? If so, as Tony mentioned, your rock is probably in tip top shape (no algae, etc, etc.. )

Only 9 years old but it was very dated to the 90's nothing was done to upgrade by either previous owners, still a bunch more we want to do but the money runs out quickly

I have a heater and a seio in there for movement, looks like I am going to be a happy boy when I go to use it


Now to find a bigger tank at an inexpensive price or trades I'm getting excited now.

Hey Greg! I was wondering what happened to you guys. Glad to see ya around man!

[kwirky]

some people put tanks in the bargain finder not knowing what they're really worth. Saw a 300g for $200 once, even

If you're patient, I'm sure you could find something for a great price within 3-4 weeks.
