Ah, but a square IS a rectangle, where all four sides are of equal length.

I scored 3 40 gal breeders. 2 will be sumps and one for kids.

Kind of felt good to get $300 worth of tanks for $120. Woo hoo.

I picked up a 45 gal (36x12x24) on saturday for seahorses. Quite a deal. They had stacks of the 40gal. breeders, I think they were expecting those to sell well. It's in Valencia though.

What is a 40 gallon breeder?

I probably need one but I just don't know it yet.

"I bought myself 10 x 33 gallon oceanic cubes and 4 x 22 gallon oceanic cubes. Who wants one?"

Which store? I almost got a 75 gal for $1/per. The guy at the register thought the price on the bar code was wrong (full price) but wanted me to talk to the manager who was out.

I want a cube at the sale price.

BTW: I now have 5 40 gal breeders. If it wasn't for the power bill; I'd setup a coral farm.

I cleaned out all of the following stores of 22 gallon and 33 gallon Oceanic Cubes already or the stores listed don't have them for sale: Van Nuys, Studio City, Northridge, Encino, and Porter Ranch but maybe they will restrock? Who knows?

You might have trouble unloading those tanks.
Just as an example the one i bought off of slavearm was listed for a long period of time and he sold it to me for a reduced price to get rid of it. I hope you have other plans for them besides reselling, you might be stuck with an empty bank account and a bunch of fish tanks..... wait thats me! lol J/k

Yep....................now that you've posted that you bought 10 of them at that price, you will have a hard time unloading them for much more then you paid for them. I bought 3 last year & still have one left in the garage.

This guy did the same thing. Bought out all the tanks at his Petcos during their $1 sale. Having all these empty tanks he went nuts. Look what happened to him....
