Where to find 15 Gallon tank

Egkid · 03/26/2009, 05:25 PM

My ten gallon sprung a leak last night, the leak is temporarily fixed with super glue. Anyway since I need a new tank I figured I'd upgrade to a 15 gallon tank. The only problem is I can't seem to find any. So far I've tried:
Petco on fletcher and dale mabry
Pet Supermarket on dale mabry
Petsmart on fletcher and bruce b downs
FAOIS
Marine Warehouse

Coral Corral is closed for the night so I'll have to call tomorrow.

If anyone knows of a store in the tampa area that stocks standard 15 gallon tanks(24x12x12) please let me know.

Thanks in advance

Call Nolan's in Lakeland. It's a bit of a haul, but they have the most tanks in stock. I was just there today, too! I could have looked for you!

You might also try Pet Mart at Busch/56th. Did you try craigslist?

I have a 15 gal tall if you want it I will be at the BBQ on sat at st pete if you want me to bring it with me. its like 20w x 10D x 19H.

Yea lakeland is a bit of a drive for me. I forgot all about pet mart on busch and 56th.

I'd rather buy a new one. No reason really, I guess I'd rather not take a chance.

Thanks Amanda

I appreciate the offer but, I want the standard one for it's shallowness.

Thank you though

there were a few at the animal house on 4th st an 62 ave in st.pete not sure how far a drive that would be for you

marine warehouse should be able to order one. If i were you i would go with a 20 long. they make really cool tanks.

Egkid · 03/26/2009, 07:30 PM

I kinda need a tank tomorrow since I'm not sure how long the super glue will hold up. I'd love to go with a 20 long but I just built the stand 3 weeks ago, I planned to eventually upgrade to a 15 gallon just not this soon.

How much do you want for it? That might be the perfect fit for a sump for my corner tank.
