RE: [GSAS-Member] School Science Project




  Trish --

  I  have  a  20  gallon right now, with a strip light , some plants, an
  aquafilter, and a sand over soil substrate.  It's current inhabitants are 10
  jewel cichlids, fry but the largest are now almost 1 1/2", so they are well
  on  their way to becoming juvenile delinquents, I mean, pairing up for
  breeding.  You would be doing me a favor to take it.
