So, garage sales are definitely awesome. Some family was selling a perfect 15G with 2 bulb top light and stand for $15, and I got it for $12!

I begin my advance from my 10g!

Oh, for anyone curious, I added chunks of dry ice to my tank for a couple days this week, and the plants responded beautifully. The grass plant I have grew two new runners almost overnight, and my dwarf lily is no longer dying! The dry ice was a definite success. HAS NOT BEEN TESTED WITH FISH, HOWEVER! haha, so, I don't reccomend it. Very cheap and entertaining way to CO2 douse, though.

Now I must plot for my 15G, and actually get some fish for my 10g... maybe once I get some money...

I paid around $50 for a 20 gallon & glass lid then another 15 for a light strip. Of course that was all new. One of my tanks sprang a leak so I didn't have the luxury of waiting & shopping around.

Wow that's a great deal! A friend of mine is picking up a 150 gallon tank from a yard sale today for under $100. This will be her first tank, what a way to jump right in!
