Petco $1 per gallon sale?

[anji1971]

I wish they had a sale like that at our PetSmart stores. A 100G tank is about $400 here!!

Tanks are about 1€ per litre here, so roughly 4€/gallon. I found a used 85 litre tank the other day, for about 30€. I'm seriously considering buying it, even though I don't need it.

[anji1971]

Finding a use for it shouldn't be too hard, if you're like the rest of us here!!

[Stefan-A]

I'm probably not like the rest of you here.

Space is at a premium at the moment and I just got some troubling news regarding the pickup of the snakes I've ordered. I don't really have any extra space for it and I really don't need the tank. But it's so rare to find a cheap used tank here. This one used to be an aquarium, but has been used for rodents and doesn't hold water.

Sorry to hear that Stefan, really troubling, or just mildly troubling?

That remains to be seen. I heard earlier today that the person that was supposed to pick them up may decide to cancel the trip.

[anji1971]

These would be the Natrix maura?
Depending on how far away they're coming from, would shipping them be out of the question?

[Stefan-A]

Yeah, shipping would be out of the question.

I know I'm not the only one in this situation, so maybe some of the others who were counting on their animals being picked up could help me find an alternative. If the trip is cancelled, it's supposed to be determined this next week.

I hope something works out for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed.............they sound like lovely snakes!

I hope it works out for you, Stefan
