Added water and rocks to the tank today. Here's the picture of the tank and one showing the wall it's sitting in. Sorry this pictures are bad. I think I need a new camera that takes straight pictures.

Wow... you couldn't have asked for a better spot for a tank!

It's a spot that has housed many various things over the years, stereo's, shelving with knick knacks, children, etc. Never could get it right, but the 10 gal is a perfect fit.

That IS a perfect spot! Looks good....I guess I better get into high gear and get mine filled!

The 2 small rocks, the thermometer and the material for the stand don't need to be deducted from your budget. Unless you are just keeping a tally for yourself. But don't take that $65 or so out of your budget.

Just keeping a total tally on this tank. That way when I show my husband how little it completely cost me, he'll forget about the money I spend on the new corner tank.

Thought I would post a picture of my tank tonight. I've updated all the prices on the first post. I'm really happy with the way the stock has responded to the change in tanks. Colors are starting to change already. Still need to add a few things but I thought I would wait and see how everything like's it placement first. The damsel was going to be headed back to some store, but I would like to keep it, so this is his new home. I still have to figure out how to keep the sand in place, as he keeps fanning holes and covering up mushrooms and hitchhiker growth on the bottom rocks.
