[GSAS-Member] Planted tanks for sale




  OK, I'm desperate, so I'm trying to sell two (well, sorta 3) of my 20 gallon
  tanks.  Tank A is the perfect planted tank for fish that can't live with
  plants.  It's got an onyx sand substrate, and a whole bunch of "matching"
  rocks to allow freedom in building cubbies, etc.  It's got 2 pieces of
  bogwood, one a fairly straight stick and one is a twisty african bogwood.
  And it's got java ferns, lots and lots of a dwarf java fern, which I was
  going to tie to the rocks and bogwood, plus hornwort and other floating
  things.  It's got a single strip light and a glass top, a power filter,
  power strip, and a heater.  Right now it's filled with jewel cichlid fry
  that are probably 2 weeks away from being saleable.  It needs a new light
  bulb (this one is very dim at this point) and filter media, but the tank has
  been thriving without those.  You get everything for $40 obo, including the
  fry (I've got no place else to put them).  I've got a metal stand for this
  one, which can go for an additional $20 if you buy the tank

  Tank B is the perfect planted tank.  It has a fluorite & sand substrate,
  lots of plants, and an A H Supply 2 x 55 lighting kit with two 55 watt
  compact flourescent freshwater bulbs included -- you'll need to build or
  retrofit a top.  Tank has lots of plants, plus filter, 2 power strips &
  heavy duty (3 prong) timer,heater and homemade CO2 setup.  Current residents
  include an angelfish who was odd man out in the "dating" game, a sailfin
  pleco that is busily outgrowing this tank and which is magnificently ugly
  and keeps the glass algae free, a juvenile jewel cichlid who barely survived
  the  carnage  when  his siblings decided to pair up and spawn, and two
  reticulated cories.  You get everything for $95 obo (the lighting kit alone
  is worth over $100).  This is currently on a 1930s style kitchen cabinet,
  which you can have with it for an additional $20 -- funky, and with good
  storage.

  I also have one other 20 gallon tank that was an experiment in the "natural"
  planted tank, with midling results so far, but does have a full grown amazon
  sword, power filter, & strip light, and more jewel cichlid fry (which are
  probably just about at sale size now).  I'd be happy to let that go for $20.

  Why am I doing this?  Well, I'm going to have to move in a few months cross
  country, so I'm going to have to sell them anyway, and right now, quite
  frankly, I need money for food and utilities.  As a result, the sooner I can
  get cash for these, the better.  Hopefully my loss is your gain.
