Re: my 40 gallon tank

i know your question was not addressed at me but a 55 gallon tank itself is not very expensive. usually around 80-100$. The stand will run you a similar but slightly higher amount and then you have to think about filters lights heaters etc.

Re: my 40 gallon tank

wow what a deal...

55 tanks near me cost around 80 bucks and the stands around 120... the hoods on 55's that ive seen arent overly expensive...

Re: my 40 gallon tank

that's a lot cheaper than the ones where i live but then again there is only one REAL pet store and it's really small the other place is walmart which isn't too bad priced and the tanks are pretty good too, i'm trying to talk my wife into letting me get one, but since i'm always getting deployed she has to take care of them. so we'll see, hopefully in the near future i'll be able to afford one

Re: my 40 gallon tank

if your trying to cut costs you could build it yourself

you need-
Glass
Silicone-100% pesticide/ algaecide/ fungicide free aquarium silicone II
Paper Towels
Emery cloth
Single Sided Razors
Duct Tape
Felt Tipped Marker
Acetone
Possible support braces for larger aquariums. 30G+

Check out about.com for specifics on building

im going to try to build a small tank soon... seems relatively simple and a lot of fun.

Re: my 40 gallon tank

even though my tank was 75$ with stand and powerheads it is still going to cost a lot of money. I am spending $285 overall for everthing the lids, plants, decorations, etc... so if you want to start a new tank make sure to save up
