I gave up on the 30 gallon that I bought for Scooter because he was miserable in it.
I started teaching the lab animal class again for the fall semester & one day last week my plans for lab fell through so I decided ok, let's talk about what's wrong or right with pet stores & books sold in them, then we went to one for a field trip.
Before we left I mentioned the one pet store in the neighboring town where the woman tried sooo hard to get a 40g breeder tank for me but could not.
One student asked about it, I described it, she said "I have one like that! I don't use it because I bought it a long time ago for crabs, the crabs died so I put it up in the attic."
I said "wanna sell it?"
She said as a matter of fact she's been planning to have a garage sale & was planning to sell that tank. She said it's like brand new she just has no use for it.
I said bring it in I'll buy it. Well she hasn't yet because she has to get someone to get it down from the attic for her (she might weigh 90lbs soaking wet) so I have to wait but yeah I'll take it.
Scooter still may get what I've wanted for him after all.
