fish aquariums?

Question

where is the best buy on aquariums 20 gal

Answer 1

I suggest you buy a used tank. It'll be about half the price as a new one and oftentimes they come with all sorts of extras like filters, heaters, etc.
Look on craigslist.com, ebay.com, and check your local classifieds and your local fish club.

Answer 2

Do your research!! Wal-Mart will have the best price on just the tank, but then you need the gravel, stand, light, bio-filter, heater, etc which add up. Try your local pet stores and see what kind of kits they have or sales. I went out to buy a 55 gal tank so I could have a rope fish and ended up with a 120 gallon when a local Pet-Smart was remodelling and was selling it for $280 tank, lighting and stand. Careful though, seemed like a great deal until I was forced to buy a $250 Fluval FX5 for it and 130 lbs of gravel. Before we got that one I was going to go with my local Jack's Aquarium which have entire kits ready-to-go with everything you need. They seem more expensive then Wal-Mart but when you add up all the components you need at Wal-Mart they may be less expensive. There are some great deals so do your research.

Answer 3

I have learned that Petco is the best place as long as you can find it on sale. They have the most complete kits. Whatever you do don;t get one at wal-mart. Their kits are designed so that you have to but something extra.
