My Pick-up Yesterday... Img_1210

90 gallon. Had a versa-top for 1 side, a plastic hood with 24" light for the other. Some minor scratching on the back.

Before I got off work yesterday, looked at the adds on-line at the site of a local weekly classifieds paper, the Trader's Classifieds. Had an add for a 90 gallon with accessories, $150. I called up, started talking to the gal and askin' about the tank. She said she'd take offers, then asked what she had it listed for. I said $150. She said she'd take $75. I told her it was sold, I'd see her when she got off work.

Tank wasn't totally emptied yet when I got there. While I helped her, she asked how I got her number for the tank. I told her on-line at the Trader's website. The Trader's paper comes out at noon on Fridays, she had just listed it Wednesday. So it hadn't even made it to print yet.

Anyways, exactly what I was lookin' for to fill in a hole...
