Thanks! My camera is "refurbished" so im not sure if thats why I have so many problems with it focusing or not.
Seems like it never wants to focus on the turtles, just the stuff around them lol.

Thankss! Glad you guys enjoyed them

Well I got some good news!
I talked to a friend of mine and hes going to let me buy his 200 gallon tank from him!!
Im soo excited to be able to get it! My turtz will love all the extra space
I have to figure out a stand for it first tho so it may take a little while.
Cant wait to get it all worked out!!

Nice pics... hope you're getting a good price on that tank !

I hope so too!
He told me I could get the tank from him for the same price he got it ($250)
but also said I could do payments so that sparked my interest
I looked up new 200 gallon tanks and all of them I found were really expensive.
So as long as it holds water im probably going to pick it up soon, hopefully.

Does it come with a stand? If it holds water and is in good shape, then that would be a good deal. Make sure he helps you move it

Actually thats my main problem..
He doesn't have a stand for it and the tank is soo long I cant fit it in the room I currently have my turtles in.
So then I thought.. Hey! The living room would work!
But then realized I would need around 23 cinder blocks to hold it up (my 60 gallon tank is currently held up by 12)
Not that I have a problem with cinder blocks but my gf does..
So now im trying to find a stand big enough for it without spending a ton.
Hoping I get lucky with one of these fish guys at the local swap meets around here.
I know George would love all the extra space so i'm hoping to make this all happen within the next few months.

You would just need to raise it a foot or two off the floor... some just keep theirs on the floor anyway.

Yeaa I could do that but I like having it at a good viewing height.
And since it will be in my living room id like to make it look as nice as possible.
Ill figure something out!
