    Ok...

    Here we go:

    I have a few items for sale:

    4 x 2ft tanks with glass sliders, heater and sponge filter. Comes with substrate (if you want) and some pieces of driftwood (also if you want) and a couple of plants. I am looking for R300 per tank with all of that included. It doesn't come with an air pump.

    1 x 5ft on a stand with a supawood canopy. Fully braced 500L tank - R2000.

    1 x Tank bank - 4 x 160L 4ft tanks on a bank with heaters and sponge filters and a couple of lights, (not for each tank). (reserved at the moment, but might change)

    1 x 1m tank. Needs to be re sealed - R100

    1 x 4ft cabinet tank. 400L capacity. Tank and cabinet only. - R2000 - Bring friends. This thing is heavy! (Currently reserved)

    Please bear in mind that some of these tanks have fish in them. The fish need to go before the tanks go.

    @ Gareth, I'll let you know.

    @ Zoom - Yes... I am going to be removing plenty of it from the 4ft cabinet tank. I'll let you know how much I have when it's out the tank.

    Yes Slayer, that is the best price I can give... This setup cost me a small fortune to set up and I think these prices are more than reasonable.

    These tanks do need to be broken down still. You can have a look in my breeding setup thread. Those are the 2ft tanks.

    no hijacking intended...but I wonder what the total spend would be if we add up all the money we've invested in our toys...I tried to work out what I have spend (lot of it on trial and error) and could probably have bought a good second hand car for the price...

    I think in the year since I moved into my house, I have spent close to R50 000. Easily.

    The 4th tank goes on top. Each tank is 160 liters. It's quite a cool stand. Makes a great grow out bank. Still only going for R1500.

    If you were in CT I would be very interested in the tank bank. But as it seems on the forum at the moment, all the good deals are in the wrong province. LOL
