A guy near my city posted this add:


I AM SELLING MY FISH TANK, COMES WITH:
20 gal TANK-NO LEAKS OR VISIBLE SCRATCHES
STAND-BLACK WITH 2 SHELVES
FILTER
HEATER-FLUVAL 100W
LIGHTED HOOD
TANK HAS LIVE PLANTS IN IT
PLASTIC PLANTS
THERMOMETER
AIR PUMP WITH BUBBLE STONE
1 ANGELFISH
3 NEON TETRAS
1 CHERRY BARB
1 BLUEBERRY BARB
2 ZEBRA DANIMOS
1 ALGAE EATER
2 CHORDATAS (CAT FISH)
MANY BABY SNAILS
1 RED FIDDLER CRAB
1 POLYWOG (THANKS TO MY SON)

He wants 100$ for everything, and i havent even bargained with him yet.. I plan on buying it, using th media to seed my tank that is currently cycling fishless and then convert some of the fish, and possibly get rid of some as it is wayyy overstocked.

Sounds like a good deal. Although for a 20G that was way overstocked.

And what is a blueberry barb? I don't get anything on a google search.

Good deal IMO. I agree with Nc though, that's overstocked.

Sounds look a good deal but the stocking needs a lot of work.

can't have an angel in less than a 20g, but if you want to get just know the stocking will need adjusting

I am well aware of the stocking complications. I had to read over the ad twice, because i thought there were two tanks:P i coudlnt comprehend how someone could fit that many fish in a 20gal XD.

I also plan on selling the angel and the snails, crab.

ryan what tank do you have now? cos you might be able to keep some of the fish and just split them between the two as well selling a few

It sounds like a decent deal, did he have any pics of it? Make sure the equipment is the quality you want.
