Bought a new tank today! Empty Bought a new tank today!

Post by Nataliey Sat 10 Jul 2010 - 23:00

Went shopping this afternoon for a tank, wasnt quite sure what i was looking for just wanted a tank with a stand/cabinet as im running out of places to put tanks (4 already) so went to my MH aquatics to see what they had. Saw lots that i liked but where far too big and expensive, but did see 2 that i liked straight away, both made by Fluval but one was a 90 litre and the other 120 litre...only had £200 to spend! The 90 litre was £170 and the 120 litre was £200...what do i do!!! Gary was no help really he said it was upto me...why do men always say that, lol!

So in the end i picked the 90 litre Fluval Roma tank as i also needed gravel and an ornament for the girls tank, its very nice and comes complete with a cabinet, heater, filter, lights, filter cycle and something else, food flakes. I like it a lot the cabinet is black and silver.

I bought black gravel for the tank, also a tree stump for the girls tank which they love!
Im going to get a photo of it when its set up which will probably be done tomorrow with help from Gary, the tank is more high than long but il still be able to divide it.

This is a photo of the box of the tank:

Yellow would probably go best. Pink is a very opposite colour. Orange might work too. I love decorating :-) It's like a tank, only bigger!

I have to admit I'm not a very 'pink' person. You might have to ask someone more impartial. What about the girls? What do they think?
