It's not a tank, its a "dartfrog terrarium"

Dan, how much? My mom has been looking for a bow front. I told her to get a 72 but I think she actually wants something smallish. And sorry I never returned that PM. A lot of the HC melted. I'm trying to nurse it back. I'll let you know if it comes back.

No problem.

Not sure what to ask for it....does 50 sound fair (tank, hood, plants)? Someone let me know if this seems out of line - I don't sell stuff much so i'm not really sure....

That is a fair price for a complete setup.

[Fishies_in_Philly]

That sounds fair enough that is joe doesn't want it, i'll take it. Tree frogs would love, love, LOVE it!! Lol

Not necessarily breed. I would say I want to have more hands on experience with them. I currently have 3 that I have been raising the past 2 years. Thinking back, I should have gotten more at the time when I got there three but that is hind sight.

$399 at the LFS is just someone being greedy. That's is about what the market value is.

[Fishies_in_Philly]

i agree about pricing. but once van saturates the market, we'll get zebra plecos for $1!! LOL

riddle me this batmen.....what kind of shrimp is black with a white stripe going down it's back? these were the "chocolates" that i was given. i got an up close and personal with my berried female and saw she has a white stripe down her back. i will try to get a pic if she every ventures forward again.
