2Nd Tank

[ian]

So after long discussion with my missus, we have come to the agreement that i can get another tank. There was a claus in my contract though...I have to stop smoking. I have agreed to do so, i have booked an appointment with the smoking cessation nurse at work and have set a date to give up (1st Jan).

Anyways, we haven't got a massive amount of room, so have opted to save with the money i save from buy cigarettes to buy a corner tank. I was just wondering about the pro's and cons to corner tanks. I have also been looking on the net for a nice looking stand with a corner tank. We have oak furniture so the missus would like an oak stand, but am struggling to find one. Anyone know were i can get one. It should only take me a few months to save for one.

I can't wait!

buy the way, i can manage up to 190 litres.

Get that nigateen gum stuff ( or how ever its spelt.. ) We was doing some poster in science today and apparntly the gum stuff ACTULY works... But its not the best stuff apparntly I Would'nt have a clue.

But Apparntly if you give up smoking and put the money to a side

you'd say around £1800 a year... ( If you smoke 20 a day that is )


I made my mom buy me a new fish tank

well my uncles getting it me but hey! alls good

i work in the health service, so i have critiqued the best method. I'm gonna use patches as the new tabs on the market have some side effects i'm not keen on. I would use gum but we're not allowed to chew at work.

My advice on the quitting is to start cutting down as soon as possible - I cut down so slowly that when I eventually quit I barely even noticed, except when I was REALLY angry with the kids LOL

I agree that ebay is probably the way to go, you might have to wait for a while to get the right tank but there's definitely some bargains out there. Or put a wanted add on here?

I'd love a corner tank. Unfortunately I have no free corners to put one in lol

anyone have advice on corner tanks?

DO NOT keep then by a door you see us kids like to slap doors open/closed

we dont want one slamming open infront of the fish tank

wow, you discussed with your spouse getting a 2nd tank! lol I just kept getting them while my DH gritted his teeth. It wasnt until I was at 5 tanks that he put his foot down when I asked for a 35 gallon. lol! (uh, he's so mean to me

Best of luck to you and hope all goes smoothly with your plans!
