Quintious Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 I'm still in the closing stages of determining whether getting into this hobby is what I wanna do or not, but would like to at least get an idea of some of the financials as I go forward. I'm interested in pricing for a tank/stand/canopy at the least. I guess acrylic is what I'd be most apt to purchase. Would have to be at least 125 gallons but no 500 gallon type things. I guess I could feasibly go to 280 or so with the space I have available. It'd have to be pre-drilled. I guess I'd also want a sump setup as well, so I don't have to try and figure out how to go about doing that. I've been to a couple of stores here in town and priced some of this stuff through them. I know it sounds cold, but the reality is with the economic climate, paying retail just seems like an utterly silly move to me so that's not gonna happen. Anyhow, if you've got something that might fit the bill, drop me a private message thing. I'll be foraging around the forums here more in the morning as I learn more about all this and get a better idea of what I'm working with.

CA2OR Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 I am sure you will find something nice. You can always scour craigslist as well. There are tank breakdowns all the time there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegotjs Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Try AQHA show Horses , if you want to spend more money on a hobby. This is like chump change compared to that. How much do you want to spend on a tank. We can better tell you what you might be able to get in your price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
