  • WTB: bowfront tank

    Alright...I know, I know...I don't need another tank.
    But I swear...*starts to sweat*...this one isn't for me!!!

    My mom wants a tank now. Apparently, I've got her addicted too. I bought her a nanocube (she thought they were sleek).
    Sadly, I can't get her to put anything but those fat-eyed goldfish in it.  :hang:

    Anyways, I went to visit her yesterday and she decided that randomly *cough cough* she would like to donate the new leather couch she just bought.
    And go figure...she thinks an aquarium would really "balance out the room and bring it all together".
    I innocently asked her what she had in mind (just to humor her). Partly because I needed her to keep talking so that I could finish off
    her sushi dinner that she left on the table and partly because I really wasn't paying attention.
    *hangs head*

    Apparently this is what I agreed to before I knew it...
    She wants a large bowfront tank...she's apparently thinking around 100 gallons. More or less.

    Naturally, she said she would pay for it...just to ask my "fish friends" if they had one she could buy.
    You and I both know...you can't let your mom pay for anything.  :?

    So, let me know if you have one you want to sell or if you've seen one. Even if it's not a bowfront, I want something kind of modern looking.
    Plus, I can't let her pay for something that I'm going to stock.  
    The good part about all this is...I can live vicariously through her aquarium.
    *muah ha ha ha*

      I'll take a peek...also, no worries.
      I made her promise that she wouldn't fill it with those fat-eyed goldfish. (black moor)

      Not that there's anything the matter with em'.
      We all know...we enjoy a good ol' fat eyed goldfish every once in a while.  

      lol...ek...is that your big secret?

                yeah, that is definitely a heck of a deal. Very tempting... :think:
                I will definitely keep it in mind. I just don't want to give her a 50 gallon when she wants a 100.

                It's like ordering a porterhouse and getting a sirloin.
                lol...although, the sirloin is still delicious, it's just not as big.

                Although this reminds me, I'm hungry as   !!!
                That's when you know you're hungry, you start making steak analogies.

                      Thanks for the link FtCat, I just emailed the guy. He doesn't want to sell the tank separately.  :(
                      I don't blame him though, parting it out can be a real hassle. It's not a bad deal though...too bad I am SOOOOOO
                      over saltwater.
