Nyles Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Just wondering what others do for extra cash to pay for tanks? Lets keep it clean... You know who you are. I trade in frags to my local store and I started my own pressure washing company in march to pay for saltwater habbit... LOL, I used to own a computer consulting company on the side in portland but got burned out of the long hours after work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the only Frags I currently have are things like xenia, red shrooms, finger leather. My only sps is only and inch tall, and I'm not sure what color it will turn out to be. It was from a browned out colony, but the flesh now looks green, and the polyps are turning a bluish grey at the tips under the T5 lighting.

Ronjunior Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 My luck started when someone gave me a scratched up 200 gallon aquarium and tons of equip for frog/cichlids. Too much work to take out brillo marks, so sold and traded down to a 2 month old 125. Ran across a too good to be true 135g saltwater setup and stand for $250, with wife’s blessing, bought it and sold off what I didn’t need. Cichlids lost the battle to my marine dream and I’m sort of breaking even, but scratching my head for future costs…B-day coming up and XMAS; all fish items and gift certificates for fish stores on the lists.(naughty) Just hope santa knows how to setup a drip inside the stocking. Would be funny to see how much one could make in a day holding a sign on the onramps, “out of work, need fish!” Just checked the election results for Clackamas bonds, might have to sell the house, and live in the aquarium . Damascus will soon beat out Lake Oswego taxes if it hasn't already tonight.(censored) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
