hahaha Nice... I passed a 110 gal tank on to my best friend today. :shock: Tank and stand were going together for $100. :shock: But she's been wanting a marine tank for too long for me to not tell her. She replied to the post within minutes of it going up, so I hope she gets it. :)

OMG! my dad said I can't get it. Well, I think I jsut wanted more space. anyone know anything I can do with a 29g? everyone has such elaborate tanks and I just cant seem to get it right. I think the first step is to get water dishes that fit in corners and get my UTH side mounted so the sand doesn't dry out so bad. any1 have a 29g or thereabouts with pics? raen can u psot pics of ur 34g? i tihnk itsd almost the same as a 29g (29g tall is same footpring as 20g)
