WYSIWYG
I dont think many kids have a large tank but I do. And was very lucky. Well it all started in august when my dads boss was asking about me and my dad told him about me being in this awesome hobby. So my dads boss started saying they have a bug tank which they dont use and if we want it we can have it. Well of course I told my dad yes right away. About a week after that we went and picked it up. We set it up in the basement and did the pluming and all that fun stuff. Filled it up with water. After that we drained cleaned it with vinigar like 10 gallon of it. We took it into the living room and and found a place for it. Filled it up with 120lbs of sand and only 20lbs of caribian live rock. Cycled it for a while. Got alot of fish and non died still all alive. Then only 1 month later I saw a post on a reef club forum(C.T.A.R.S) that this person was moving and all live stock for sale. I was the first to post. Called him, only $1 per pound. I told him its all mine. Later that night I went to him. And picked alot of corals. And we wrote a list. The next day me and my dad went to pick up everything. When we were finish I went over to the guy and started paying him. But when I took the money out of my pocket he said "you know what forget about it" I was like what do you mean and I was told that I can just take everything I was shocked. I didnt know what to say over about $3,000 worth of livestock. And still today everyone in my tank is alive.
