Well, I just got back from buying some used tanks.

I got 2 55 gallon tanks with a double stand, 1 30 gallon long predrilled & set up for a sump, 1 10 gallon, lights, some tops, several HOB filters, air pumps & miscellaneous.

Got all of this for $150.00 US.

Now just to decide what to do with them all. I currently have a 29 gallon in my office & I was going to set up a 20 gallon long also, but I think now I'll swap them out for the 2 55 gallons. What do you think?

Well it sounds like a GREAT deal. Nice job. Is your office at your home? Or do you just work ALOT? As I would atleast keep 1 55 at home for relaxation.

I'm self employed and I have a separate location for my office. And yes, I do work a lot. Typically 12-13 hours a day and usually 6 days each week.

All work and no play makes Jim a dull boy. Well since you already have the 29 going, why not just add 1 55. Do you currently run any tanks at the house? Seems like you might only have Sundays at home though, and you might want to see the light of day on your day off. The answer is probably in the maintenece and or overall viewing time. Decisions,decisions.
