Great Deal, that I cant do

Post by xrayjeeper83 »

So I have a friend that lives in New Mexico that has a 240G tank(and I assume everything to go with it) that is just sitting around with nothing in it. When I was just talking to her we were BSin about fish and I mentioned that I want a bigger tank for Bloat, and she told me that if I was closer that she would give me, for free, the 240!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone else get any kickass deals that they had to pass up like that

How far away is that? I think it's worth a trip!

If you drive out there, don't be surprised if when you enter her house, the lights are dim, kenny g is playing, and candles are lit everywhere. The tank may not even be there.

Tell you what... I'll pay you to get me in contact with this girl. I have a friend that works for a big shipping company, and I can have that tank shipped up here to me for a decent price. Sound like a plan? My Fahaka 'Mufasa' would love a 240. PM me.
