bettachris Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3875 Kudos: 4173 Votes: 452 Registered: 13-Jun-2004	i was at a lfs and they had a black 55 long for 99usd. it doesn't come with a stand(which i didn't want anyway) but i am not sure waht else it comes with. the tank is full of gravel and like aquarium fish stuff, hopefully they will come with it.

bettachris Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3875 Kudos: 4173 Votes: 452 Registered: 13-Jun-2004	i think it doesn't come with a hood, and i will go and ask about it, but they have like 6 tanks lined up in the back wall(not a real large fish department) and it is the tank with gravel and some random boxes in it, i didn't really get too good of a look, but just trying to find a price range. the 55 long next to it was priced around 400, but i think it is with a hood/stand. or just a hood,

houston Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003	I'd say if it comes with the goodies go for it otherwise you can get a larger one for not a lot moreor I know of a place you could hereI know the 55s at walmart with all their goodies, new are about $150, so if that helps any shrugs your choice "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."
