Hey guys. I'm tossing the idea around of putting the hobby on hold for a while. I can't afford my utility bills and I haven't had time to take proper care of my tank, so I'm considering breaking the tank down for a while. Here are the prices I'm asking. If you are interested, let me know and I'll get pictures of anything you want. Either way, I do plan to stay active in the club.

Of course the livestock would have to go first. Pickup only. Springfield, IL
