The addiction has started 
On sunday night my girlfriend desided after having my tank going for a while and the different choice of fish she wanted a fighter fish. Of course me having guppys this wasnt going to be going in my tank. So we went on good old Ebay and Gumtree and found a tank 14 miles away. So rang the guy up at 8.30 to go and look at it after measuring bits up at home we worked out where it would fit. So rang him up at 9 to go have a look. We arrived at 9.30 to see the tank. Was covered in Green Algae it was that bad looked like something had died in it! I offered him £35 for the lot. It came with
48L Fishbox
Heater
Filter (Covered in Algae)
Thermometer
Old Food (3 Tubs)
Birth Pool
Some Other Tubs
Goldfish Bowl
Green Algae Gravel
Only things we have used are the tank and heater. We went out yesterday morning to maidenhead aqautics and bought Red gravel, Filter, Decorations and a Thermometer all this came to £60
The tank is now in a fishless cycle and after a good clean up to remove all the Algae and what not in the tank it now looks like this
