Possibly getting an established 20gal planted community tank. This is the first time I’ve moved a tank with fish. What are the recommendations for moving everything? Thanks!

What your kidding! They won’t get rid of the furniture!?

Lol our house is under 1000 sq ft. I don’t have the room for 2 sadly.

Looks like the sale is going on now with curbside pickup due to COVID-19. It’s unfortunate we can shop though for all the supplies. Buying online is tough for a newbie like me

Hmmm... So this one is probably over priced. And no filter with it. Aqueon 65 gallon fish tank - general for sale - by owner

I’ve been searching Craigslist and FB for something used, I’m not picky about size of the tank but would like a stand for it. What are the pros and cons for buying new vs used? For buying used what should I look for? Hubby and I have been casually looking into getting a fish tan, we are not in...

Thanks everyone! I actually like the trickling water sound. The noise wouldn’t bother me but any smell would.

I don’t even have a tank yet. Hubby brought up getting a fish tank again recently now that our daughter is a little older and we are stuck at home for a few more weeks. We have a really nice local tropical fish store just minutes away as a bonus! Anyway, We have a very small house. And I was...

That’s exactly what I needed to know! I think I’ll pass then. This person refused to answer any questions anyway. So glad I joined this forum! It’s helped so much and I don’t even have fish yet!

this came up on Craigslist and I messaged them with a few questions but no answer and they changed their ad to “what you see, what you get” so I have my answer. My husband and I are newbies in this hobby but we really wanted to do a planted tank in a 20 gal long. I’ve done lots of reading and...

I thought about it and I think I’m going to stick with the 20L. I don’t need the height for the Bettas. Plus the spot it’s going is pretty tall and it’s going to work out really well with the 20L. My husband was really interested in the 55 gal size so that’s what might be our next tank for...

Your terrible. While I’m at it, why not get a 40 gal and get 4! But seriously, I’m planning to stick to the 20 gal long as it fits perfectly in the spot we picked. I’ll look into what equipment that tank has and ask some questions.

Great idea! Payday is tomorrow so hopefully I’ll start getting supplies really soon. Tempting to go there... it was $25 for the 20 long at the local fish store. And thank you, I’ve never been one to just jump into something. I get stressed out that I’m not doing it right if I just go for...

Oh boy... So many choices! I’m leaning towards a 20 long and a divider for 2 Bettas. I think I decided on the Betta tank location too! So hubby and I visited the fish store and as I suspected when I pointed out the 20 long he said “isn’t that too small?” So we’ll probably end up with...
