My parents live in nh and I am desparately looking for a larger aquarium for my turtles and more supplies for them. Since my access to a car is limited to nh, any turtle owners have good stores in the nh or ma area or websites that have great deals?

Please let me know. I'm really looking for a 100-120 gal tank. I just want to get as big as I can afford now and allow for a little growing room.

There have been recent posts about people seeing tanks on craigslist (for free). Perhaps you could find something there.

yeah I tried but they were gone before I could get a reply in
I'm trying to negotiate a person down with a 135 gal tank to $150. I"m willing to pay that, just not the $450 prices on craigslist for 55 gal tanks with a ton of fish stuff.

Ya, stay away from the "complete setups" because people are usually trying to get their money back. Every couple of weeks I see some pretty good deals. I just recently got a 90gal tank for $75!

I like to shop at SeaWorld Pet Center in Salem, NH. It's off exit 1 on rt93 South. They have everything there for every type of pet imaginable and their prices are a little beter than Petco, but still not as low as online.

If I see any other good deals on craigslist I'll send you a PM.

thanks. I keep my eye on both the nh and boston craigslist since I live on the border. I will check out SeaWorld Pet Center, since it'll be on my way to Canobie lake!
