So I was in the garage yesterday giving my new tank a scrub out and my neighbour came over and said I see you have a new tank. I was like yep. Anyway he then says well I have a stand and hood in the garage I don't want if you want it!! That's right - a free stand and hood. I was like well I'll take a look. Anyway it's gorgeous!! IT's pine with a red cherry stain on it. The hood will look awesome too! I haven't seen whether there is a light or not.. He doesn't know much about tanks and stuff. He said he used to keep some fish (I figured later they were discus based on the convo) anyway he got sick of looking after them so got rid of them. And now the stand and hood are just in his way so he's giving them to me!! :19:
So the stand and hood is for a 5 ft. I thought oh well it may just have a small gap each side. Well then I measured the tank. The guy had told me it was 122 long - seems he can't use a tape measure as it is actually 138 long!!! So it looks like it will fit perfectly! Will get pics sooN!!

I am SO jealous! I am in need of a stand for my new tank, but I'm totally broke (yay college :scry:)! Unfortunately I know all my neighbors, and none of them have/had aquariums. Maybe I should clean my tank in the front yard and pray some nice person drives by and offers a free stand! Anyway, grats on your awesome luck!
