But for $300.00??? Really an 8 gallon tank?

micki · « **Reply #5 on:** November 07, 2011, 18:31:08 »

I couldn't stand it, I had to send an e-mail to see if it's really an 8 gallon tank. Here is the response... $:-\$

My husband says 6, 7, or 8. I think 8 but we are not certain.

o they are smart NOT

micki · « **Reply #7 on:** November 07, 2011, 18:55:31 »

When I questioned if it was really $300.00 here was the response...

Yes. As I said in the ad, there is almost 300 just in fish and snails. We paid 600 for the tank and water and rocks and sand at the saltwater warehouse in Dayton.

wow they got riped off

micki · « **Reply #10 on:** November 07, 2011, 18:59:44 »

No kidding!

HUNGER · « **Reply #11 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:01:11 »

thats what is sad is they got riped off and now they will get stuck with it or rip some one else off

Boonjob · « **Reply #12 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:04:24 »

I will say they are exaggerating(Lieing) before I say they got ripped off... 600 is extreme for a tank like that(I doubt they paid that)... I don't think I can even fit $300 dollars worth of fish,rock and sand in that tank.

they clearly are missing a few screws to begin with.

I say they paid 300 for it, and are trying to get their 300 back by making it sound like it is worth more.

It is Gerber's... I highly doubt they ripped them off.

LOL Ya Think!!! If they did pay that (which I would agree with you that they did not), they were nuts!

HUNGER · « **Reply #16 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:20:18 »

very true cody they could be liying about it

micki · « **Reply #17 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:31:34 »

Ok, I'm dying here... I asked what kind and how many fish just to see if I was missing something. Here is the response...

There are two clowns like nemo. They were a fancy clowns, I believe. They have a more definitive black stripe after the white stripes. The guys at the saltwater warehouse in Dayton could tell you the difference and the exact name. There is also one blue tang like Dori from finding nemo. There are also snails and crabs.

Boonjob · « **Reply #18 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:32:50 »

Just sad...

I'm not sure what to say to them other than Good Luck!

HUNGER · « **Reply #21 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:39:32 »

i would send them the cost of the fish likw 2 clowns 39.99 total 1 tang 29.99 crabs 1.00 each snails aout 1.00 to 2.00 tank is 150 new

The WuSue · « **Reply #22 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:47:28 »

Honestly, if this kind of thing keeps up they're gonna have to put a UL bug label on finding nemo warning folks to just buy goldfish.

It's sad.

HUNGER · « **Reply #23 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:48:22 »

when i worked for joel i had to go buy and watch the movie so i knew what fish they were talking about

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #24 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:51:52 »

Wow now that's a deal

cyberwollf · « **Reply #25 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:52:07 »

At least the Blue tang does look small. They start them to market when they are about as big as small clowns. The only thing i think of is they bought one of the presetup biocubes ($300 or so) that Gerbers sells. Then they added the blue tang and are exaggerating the price.... Or the husband lied to the wife and took the other $300 in singles down the the establishments on South Dixie Dr.

micki · « **Reply #26 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:53:03 »

"if" they paid that price, they certainly didn't do any research...

Wes that is too funny!!!

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #27 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:53:15 »

Wusue you right it is sad

HUNGER · « **Reply #28 on:** November 07, 2011, 19:54:33 »

Blown76mav · « **Reply #29 on:** November 07, 2011, 20:49:16 »

You all took too long, I'm buying it. And I'm going to put all my new fish in it as well plenty of room

cyberwollf · « **Reply #30 on:** November 07, 2011, 21:06:17 »

Just fold them in half

HUNGER · « **Reply #31 on:** November 07, 2011, 21:20:21 »

the fish will only grow to the size of the tank

micki · « **Reply #32 on:** November 08, 2011, 06:50:22 »

So that's why they told me it was already sold! Thanks Lonnie!
