i apologise, i thought i read they had passed away recently and your last comment jus seemed out of place when talkin about someone who has just dieds fish tank.

No worries..... .......I could perhaps have posted the original thread in a more respectful way with hindsight.




.....I was more amused at FishKing's response.....

As Fenwoman said it might not have been her hobby so she just wants it gone, faffing around with ebay would be pretty annoying atm for her

yea im not sure what hes talking about.


i jus didnt want you going bouncing into her house all excited (like everyone would be) to have her standing there looking gutted.


after all, she may want it out the way but it will still remind her of her husband and probably the fun he had.


i probably could of worded my post better too.

Maybe the tank is the reason he is dead, after she bashed him over the head for wanting a bigger tank

Went and seen.........and it will do the job!

5ft x 18 inches x 18 inches........I think.........could well be 24 inches high......but I think it was 18....will tell when I strip it and take it on Sunday!!!!

Complete with a couple of filters (an Eheim 2215 and a Fluval of some sort)....heaters, wood, rocks, substrate.....and one small plec that I was assured was in there somewhere.

Tank hasn't really been touched for 5 years, aside from a top up of water, and a front glass clean every now and then. Lights don't work, and filters are almost not moving water at all....


Just needs some TLC........


.....did I mention I am picking it up Sunday......

 

[nuttsaboutfish]

nice one, good luck with the cleanin of the manky filters rather you than me,
have you got your marigolds at the ready.

 

[Ava_Banana]

Hmmm, yes........


......really looking forward to it though.......going to do some before and after pics etc......

..just hoping that under all the gunk the filters are OK.........although at least they are decent filters that I can get spares for....

..goodness only knows how long it will take to strip though......
