I just got home...picked up 4 20 gallon longs, that was the last of their 20's.

I went back for some more last minute 20 longs myself.

I think a nice shelving unit 32 inches wide, 13 inches deep, and 6 feet tall would look really cool along the wall.

put 20 longs on all the lower shelves, and the 29 on the top shelf.

I think I'm gonna get a couple of corns for my classroom for 1 of the new tanks. Yeah I know they're not garters, but they should be good for a class setting.

Woo hoo!!! I just scored 6 screen covers, 2 of them with hinged tops off ebay for $60 (including the crazy 20 bucks shipping) not really so crazy when I figure petco is 20+ miles away, and I drive a SUV, so I'd spend 3/4 of that on gas, and petco wants 20 bucks a cover.

The total was 2 non hinged covers for 20 longs @ 8 bucks each, 2 hinged covers for 20 longs for 10 bucks each, and 2 covers for 10 gallons at 4.75 each

Total investment works out like this, 20 bucks for a tank, 10 for a cover, 30 bucks for a nice snake house is not bad at all!

I got a couple of 20Ls. I was wanting a 40 gallon breeder or 2 though hopefully one will turn up on craigslist sometime.

I got a couple of 20Ls. I was wanting a 40 gallon breeder or 2 though hopefully one will turn up on craigslist sometime.

I desperately wanted a couple 40 breeders, but the sale only included 20 tall, 20 long, and 29 gallons.

The 40 breeders were still close to a hundred each, I can buy a lot of wood and glass for that, and build much better housing.

After reviewing my receipt, Petco charged me 15 bucks for that little 5.5 gallon.

However, they miscounted the 20 longs by one tank, in my favor.

so in the first trip we got 2 20 longs, a 20 tall, a 29 and the 5.5 for under a hundred bucks.

second trip was just 20 longs, and they counted correctly that time.

Normally I am honest to a fault, have even been known to go back into a store to point out that I got more than I paid for.

But since it was fish from petco that most likely killed my 3 snakes, I figured a free 20 long was the least they could do for me.

Screen covers arrived yesterday, 2 of them are plastic with coarse wire mesh for a light hood and knock outs for wire.

2 of them are really nice "Zilla" brand with hinges in the middle.

2 of them have fine mesh screen but have built in latches.

Nice

What a nice deal!!! We had tons of tanks, we gave away. We only have 3- 10 gallon tanks, 55gallon(for fish), and that is it. I am using the 4 other tanks we have for my reptiles. I do have a rather large home built iguana cage!!

Well, I have 2 lids done, 3 more started, and at least 5 more to go after that. Just need to make time to do it, hopefully this weekend.
