Hey Folks,
We all know the importance of getting young people, especially children, involved in the aquarium hobby. Unfortunately, as we also all know all too well, the aquarium hobby is not a cheap hobby, at all. The average aquarium costs a minimum of $250 to establish -- and costs continue to grow, making this out of the reach of many families.
Batfish Aquatics would like to help do something about that. We are working with one of our vendors to bring in a large number of JBJ "Cubey" Aquariums. These are awesome micro aquariums. They hold three gallons (approximately), and have ultra clear glass. Not only that, but they have a quality integrated filter, and built in LED lighting, with wireless remote control -- hey, so we've got an electronic toy for the kids to play with, too.
These units usually retail for $99.99, but we're going to be bringing them in through 12 December at the incredibly discounted rate for $69.99, with one condition! Each aquarium sold for $69.99 will be donated to needy children in the area. So, for $69.99, you can buy the aquarium and have it donated on your behalf. Batfish Aquatics will also be throwing in some of the necessities for the aquarium, including a can of fish food, small bottle of dechlorinator, etc. And, what do you get out of the deal?
For each aquarium purchased and donated, Batfish Aquatics will give the purchaser a $10 gift certificate to Batfish Aquatics (we thought about giving you a gift certificate to a restaurant, but we've been told numerous times that we're not allowed to print out our own gift certificates to other places.... *sigh*).
There are three ways you can donate.
One, you can purchase a tank on your own, and give it to me to donate for you. I'll trade you that for the gift certificate. (Of course, if you want to just donate one on your own, more power to you). It does not need to be a Cubey, but a comprable tank. Note that it must be new, unused, unwrapped, etc.
Two, you can give me a cheque, money order, cash, etc at the Holiday Party. Partial donations are also acceptable! Every dollar will help.
Or, three, you can send a PayPal to BatfishAquatics@gmail.com for $69.99 and indicate that it is for a donation tank.
