Where could I get some cheap tanks?

This is where you discuss the conditions of your crabitat -- temperature, humidity, substrate, decorating, etc.

Yup. I got a 29g from them just the other day. Unfortunately I'm looking for something larger than a 55 which I believe is the biggest they have plus I need a stand. Thanks though!

Check the Letgo app and the Facebook marketplace. Those seem to be less scoured than Craigslist sometimes. I've found some really good deals on items that have been listed a while. If something is still for sale after a couple months people are much more eager to let it go.

OfferUp is another app :) I have also heard of BooKoo. I don't have one in my area, but perhaps you do :)

Not sure where you live, but I live in Florida...I have a 46g, a 55g and a 75g that I need to list for sale :) LOL!

Thanks! I'll check those out also. I live in Ohio, but if I lived closer to Florida I would gladly take the 75g. Assuming it would cost a fortune to ship. Lol too. Talk later. Hopefully I'll find a good new tank but unfortunately it won't have any happy crabbies to live in it till at least Christmas next year cause it will take me a long time to get everything I need.

Also, if you have a local paper, you can check the classified ads online. :)

$1.00/gallon is the rate for used tanks. That you can get new ones for that is incredible.

I picked up a new 75 gallon and only paid $55.00 for it because I had several saved coupons on my rewards card and another printed coupon for $5.00.
