There has been some spot sales, but it's been on a by store basis.   If you are buying more than one tank, sometimes you can negotiate.

For the stores a breeder size is almost always a special order.   But When I ordered 3, I negotiated a better deal

yeah that's what I was afraid of... but a buddy of mine got one at the buck as gallon sale... but it was a few years back... and though they had one on sale, I have a feeling it wasn't supposed to be there.

I know that Petsmart in Beavercreek carries 40 breeders. Haven't seen them on sale in a long time

I want 200-250 gallon...

Post by: Boonjob on January 20, 2012, 08:42:44
Well I would love a 250 gallon tank, however.... Most these dollar sales top out at the 55-75 gallon tank range, so I am banished to Used when it comes to the larger tanks rofl.

Maaaaaaaaaaaaybe.... Bought it just before I got laid off.  So I never got to set it up.  I was selling it for $400 for the tank, stand, and canopy.  I got the tank from Joe Ayers a few years ago.  I just need it out of the house and get someone to set the thing up.

whats the dimensions of it?
Title: Re: $1/Gallon sales???
Post by: Midwest Express on January 20, 2012, 11:58:26
4'x4'x2' LxWxH

It is a corner tank as it is setup to be visible on two sides.  One side has a full length overflow (setup for a bean animal I think), and the other side is setup for a closed loop.
