Understocked or Empty tanks

Well All of my tanks are cycled but 1 and now I'm left with understocked and empty tanks. . I really need to go get fish but the closet LFS is 2 hours away. ..Husband is on call so we can't leave town. Right now I'm really wishing we had a LFS in our town. Our populations of our city is around 7,000. Our county is around 10,000. I know that is not big in fact it's quite small but you'd think there would be a LFS..It makes me want to start my own..lol..But just out of my house..lol..

Oh no! I know you're so anxious to get your tanks stocked.

My husband just made the mistake of telling me if I ran errands with him on Monday we can stop at petsmart. I told him I just wanted to look.

..Just looking is innocent enough. ..Let us know if you end up with any new babies.

I need to get 2 more glofish to make a school..So that will be 5 glofish in the 10 gallon.

I was going to get some black skirt tetra's I think..lol..For the 30 gallon and maybe some ottos..

I haven't got the rest figured out yet...lol..
Honestly I kinda figured I would end up bringing a betta home and put it in the other 10 gallon that's cycled..lol..I just can't hardly walk past them and not want one.

I don't mind seeing empty aquariums. It gives you time to arrange aquascaping,figure out what you want to see,before committing to buying.I generally take care of that before stocking any fish.Then,when I figure out what I want and how I want it,look out.......... fish frenzy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All my aquascaping is done..lol..For now anyway..I just have to buy more plants..I've been looking everywhere for java moss..It's nowhere..lol..I'll find it though. everything is pretty well ready I just need to decide which fish I want where. I at least need to get the 10 gallon glofish tank and the 30 hex tank done...I was really just going to do those and decide on the others later. But when your there and all those fish are looking at you it's hard for me not to impluse buy..But I know what you end up with when you do that so I try hard not to.
