So iv got something that looks like it was part of a giant custom filtration system...its an 8 gal (ish) cube looking thing without a lid and a slit in the bottom. Im going to replace the bottom and re-silicon it then build a lid for it so it becomes a tank for something.... But then what? There isnt much that could survive happily in something so small and i dont really trust it to hold water for long ... my gecko already has a huge tank so she'd hate it. Are there any other critters that could call it home? If I could get my hands on a corn snake for cheap I would but there just dont seem to be any available around here. Maybe a turantula? It would be nice if someone in my area had an animal to get rid of...thats how i got the gecko...there are probably alot of kids who get bored of their tiny critters but none that I know of at the moment. I'd feel better about adopting something rather than buying something new. Meh.


If i had saltwater it would make a cool little refugium...ref....reg...whatever those things are I suppose but I dont.

Any ideas?

what about fiddler crabs or something like that mabey a newt? set it up paladium style then you could keem that hole in the bottom.....

Turtles maybe? Hell if you lived in Florida you could go outside and catch something to put in there haha. You know, it's nice to have a refuge for freshwater too. Seal it up nice and it might be okay. Let it sit outside or in a tub or sink full of water for a few days and see if it leaks.

heres a newt tank...

Ah yes craigslist....a whole 6 offers in my area since june.... most of them dealing with cats. Tried something called Kijiji too which seems to have more users from my area...maybe i'll find something there.

saltwater becomes more and more enticing to me every day...Must....Resist....not....enough.....money.....bah! *sigh*

I will eventually have a salt tank probably when I get out of college and get a career to make enough dough to buy the best most expensive accessories for it.
