Well I think I won the aquarium lottery today! I have been doing alot of research on salt water aquariums. I have a 10 gallon that I used to use for the baby fish. A salt water aquarium under 50 gallons is considered a nano reef. I thought it would be a great start for me to try salt water in a small version rather then change out my 55 gallon. Well I went to the pet store to get some supplies and look for a stand. They wanted $99 just for a 10 gallon aquarium stand!!!! I was so bummed because I really did not want to spend that much just for a stand. Though being the proficient aquarist I already should have known that this stuff was going to be 'up there' but for a 10 gallon!!! So me and Nate were strolling around looking at the clown fish and the star fishies and when I turned around there she was......just beaming in the light with a big 50% off sign. So I asked and they said the tank and stand were for $140 and it was 47 gallons!!!! The regular price was $501 and they took an aditional price cut on it for clearence. Well I get my supplies I needed like the salt and stuff and went up to the register. The register lady was a little puzzled becuase they were coming up as a total of $47.......sure enough that was the price! UNBALEIVABLE!!!!! They even called the manager to confirm! So here I go down the adventure of salt water aquariums. Its going to go where the Christams tree is so I cant set it up for awhile but when I do I will post some pics.
