Best CL deal ever

Post by wagner7123 »

Thanks Craigs list, i just bought a 60gal for $20 with an aqua c and 80lbs of live rock, 2 korilias, a heater and a stand. It all needs to be scrubbed(a lot, esp the dead live rock), but for 20 bucks i guess i could do a little work

Great deal...

CL is the best...I've gotten some great deals on there but my best was a 2 year old 75g, 2 Fluval canisters with 2x spare parts and media, triple florescent hood, glass canopies, like new stand, real Python with extension, tons of chemicals-food-accessories, even a background. And it was spotlessly clean to boot.




$220.
There are many knowledgeable fish keepers on this forum willing to help and give great advice...The advice is free; What you choose to do with it gives it value.

he had 4 or five tanks, this was the only one with stuff in it though. he was moving out of state which in alaska usually means sell everything you have because its too expensive to ship it, especially in the winter. it was strange though, he answered the door with a gun in his chest holster and there were bullet boxes all over the house. Most people who love guns that much don't want to leave here.
