    My husband brought home a 20 gallon long aquarium this morning. One of his customers has been driving around with this in his car waiting to see my husband, which he did last, since hubby is working 3rd shift this week. Seeing I already have so little to do since its spring time(sarcastically said), he wants to do another fish aquarium, he got bit by the fish bug this past fall when he got a 29 gallon a tank set up, now we have 4 tanks up and running.

    So here is what I did!

    Won't he be surprised when he wakes up!

    And of course Squeaky had to have his imput! :)

    It looks like you made a seed starter out of it?? It looks like jiffy pot under the lights. I hope I'm not wrong on my guess. :worried: IF I'm right, it's a good idea.

    I can't figure out whatit is. I'm sure it's something garden related.

    If those are seeds you're raising in that one I think your husband is going to really be surprised. I hope he lets you keep it and raise you plants instead of fish.

    Well hubby was quite surprised but he took it in stride, I've got some marigolds and pansies going for my mother-in-law, for a couple of planters, hopefully i can get them done for Mother's Day. My tomatoe seeds should be here in a few days so I'll put them in there to start.

    Hubby brought this home this morning, I've figured that I can fit 40 starter pots on it. Then it will be used for my herbs.
