What would be the most important thing you would buy if you had an extra $200.00 to blow. It could be filters, food, lighting....

and what was the BEST thing you ever bought and said "wow! that was the best thing I could have bought"

not 200.00 but the best thing I bought was a python. no more buckets. I just wonder why it took me so long to get it.

Since I am otherwise set up and trying to stay 'in control of my habit', I would have to also go with plants....man, $200 would take me really far, LOL!
Best regards,

If I and an extra $200. I would throw toward what I what I want now...a top quality female fine line SS with good size and shape and a small, bright, red eye. I bet I could find what I wanted if I had another $200.

I would buy a Euro Credit Swap to double in 6 months and buy a pair of Solomon in December.

I would use the $200 as down payment on Mandarin Passions from Jack Taylor, if he can hold on to a couple fry the grow out for me. LOL I know his MP fry are very popular so that might be challenge and I might be in for a very long wait.

Best fish money ever spent was an RODI unit. Start clean and reconstitute to the fishes needs.

thats a great idea I have the storage area and all I just need the pump and hose and I am sure I could do it for under 200$
