125g Free- come and haul it away!

This tank had been set up in my classroom for quite a few years. It was drained in April, 2020 due to Covid causing school buildings to close. It is an old 125, with one center brace. Includes: tank, stand, glass tops, mattenfilters, powerheads (ran mattenfilters), sand and rocks. Must take it all.

Located at Washington Grove ES in Gaithersburg. Pick-up must be either June 25 or June 28, 9-3. You will need to bring people to help lift.

I don’t know if other ppl have messaged you, but I can definitely come to get it on either June 25th or 28th. Please let me know if it is still available. Thank you!

Great! Do you have a preference on which day it gets picked up?

Very generous Andrew, unfortunate that it won’t be in a classroom anymore.

Thanks, Jim. With the limited storage my classroom has to offer, and the increased curricular resources I must house, I need the space the tank currently occupies. I hope to be able to add a smaller tank in place of the 125 at a later point.

If I had a smaller one I would donate it to, hopefully someone in the club could at some point. When my daughter was in HS we donated a baby snapping turtle to the science class for the year and the students loved it. They also had another tank with trout hatchlings.

Not sure if you're interested to go this small but I have a 5.5 gallon available.

Thanks for the offer. I presently have six tanks running and two sitting empty in my home. I will likely bring one of these to my classroom.

Great deal for someone. Shame it can't be kept, but I'm sure priorities take over, glad to see schools starting to normalize again.
