    So we all have tanks, where did you buy it from?
    Store?
    Friend?
    Online Site?


    Did you buy it new/used? May be looking to purchase another tank and just seeing if there are any deals that most of us do/don't know about!

    I bought my first tank (the one that got me hooked) from the LFS. A 34 gallon Red sea. From there I bought a 55 gallon from Craigslist. Got hooked even more. Then bought my 180 from Craigslist. Great deals and saved tone of cash for stocking. I am a fan of Craigslist because of all the money I saved.;D
