So the strangest thing happened today.....
My friend and I were talking and he said that he has been wanting to get another Wii for some odd reason. This is also my same friend thats had a 55g tank sitting in his garage forever because he upgraded to a 150g. I sarcastically mentioned I had a Wii, also collecting dust.
So I get a call this morning and he asked if i would be willing to trade him my Wii for his tank plus cash. I said sure, why not. So i am now the proud owner of a 55g tank with all the goodies needed to make it work. Plus I got $20! I call that a good day thus far!!!

Lol that's the only reason I don't have a single 10 gallon tank anymore. This kitten is a pain in my ... But it's worth it to have all these set up. Plus I should be adding another 10g tmro only because it comes free with a saltwater light I need. But I'm thinking of the next item I can bribe her with to get that set up lol.

Your so so so so so lucky! I want a fish aquarium so bad and I need money! I have $120 right now but i still need more. I am thankful because my mom is nice enough to buy the filter, cleaning water conditioner, the vaccuum, fish food. The only things now I have to buy is the tank that comes with the hood and stand, gravel, decor, and fish. My mom also might help me out with fish.

Morla, check out Craigslist in your area. I'm willing to bet that's where most of us got a tank or 2 before. It's the cheapest way to do it

All you guys have luck with your parents. I'm convinced that my parents want my betta to die so that they can force me to get rid of the aquarium

I wish my parents still brought me stuff. Part of being an adult though. Stupid grown up world.
