Yeah Boss when me and my dad farmed apples and pear here in Washington State we made about the same kind of income, and eventually push came to shove. We sold off all the land, and equipment. Looked like big money untill you had to pay for maintenance fees, chemical bills, diesle fuel, laborer payroll, etc. etc.....

Hey guys, I have another dilemma. I went to my other LFS today and spoke to the owner about the tank I want. He informed me he is going to sell one of his displays to make room for more sale tanks.

The display he is going to sell, which I have first chance, is an L shaped 500g acrylic. He'll take $600 for the tank and stand. The long leg is 10 feet long x 30in wide and 25in tall. The short leg is about 5feet long. I can have the long side cut down to the 7 feet and put in and end pane of acrylic which would be the 300g tank I want.

I could also replace the rear panel of the short leg of the L which would result in about a 120g tank.

I kinda hate to turn that bigass L tank into 2 smaller rectangle tanks but it could be a fairly cheap way to go. I would just have to find a company that could cut it.

I'd love to but there is physically no room for it. I am thinking I'll just bite the bullet and get a ready made glass tank for a grand.
