Long story short - wasn't suppose to have more than 2 fish tanks in my apt and my landlord isn't happy and wants them out. I have two Eheim nano tanks 4.3 gallon up for sale, asking $75 each which includes the complete set up (light, tank, filter). These are high quality rimless tanks, thick 5mm glass, comes with glass lids - the lights alone are $50 each. Local pick up preferably, I'm in the SF Bay Area in Calif.



I have also have three bettas that'll need to be rehomed, all I ask is the buyer pays for the shipping cost+materials ($13 priority mail+7 foam+2.50 heat pack). They're fairly young~ 6 months old.

Adam - Halfmoon king betta, very fiesty! I love him and absolutely healthy. He would do well in a 4+ gallon tank.



Thai - Actually got him from aquabid - beautiful markings, fairly young ~ 3 months old.



Atlas - White/Marble Delta, sorry for the bad pictures, was cleaning his tank. He's a very active guy as well, follows your finger :)

I'm able to keep the other two bettas, Sharkie was rehomed with a friend since my landlord restricted me to have two 3 gallon tanks at most and sharkie required a bigger tank :( and these guys are left. Yes, I would move out but the bay area housing is so limited (too much demand, not enough supply of housing).

Yes, it was on the lease specifying no pets, part of HOA as well :( In fairness, I should've only had two tanks but it's really hard when you love these bettas... I just thought it would've been okay because she NEVER visits, but apparently she was notified that maintenance needed to access my unit and I wasn't answering my phone and she had to allow them in.

I'm thinking about setting up a tank at work and keeping one of the boys listed on here, but still two has to go :(

Thank you guys for the support, and landlords have much more control than the renters, that's how it is here in the SF Bay Area. You either abide or get kicked out, they can easily replace you with the number of people looking for housing here.

I'm in San Mateo, and I prefer to do local pick up and can drive to a place within reason but if worse comes to worse, I can ship them. I had one person express interest for Adam and one for Thai but nothing is confirmed yet. Will let you know by Friday :/

Unless it's a dire emergency they are not supposed to go into your apartment..if they need to access the unit they need to give you notice...they can't just let themselves in....like I said unless it's a dire emergency.

If needed maybe you could set up two tanks at work?? LOL I'll get you fired...maybe you could explain what's going on.....

I'm just saying because I was going to set up a tank at work so I bought the petsmart 2.5 gallon i think it was great choice..it was $13.00 and the footprint is small I could easily fit two tanks and run sponge filters with one pump. 12" wide 8"high and 6" wide
I got the tank set up at work, it's a small 2 gallon tank. I want to keep my cube professional, having more than one tank is a bit too much. My boss was kinda meh about it, but he's fine with one.

I am in San Jose. It's totally fine for me to drive up to San Mateo.
I'll be going down to San Jose Sunday to drop off Adam since someone expressed interest for him, I'm going to miss him so much but I dont think he'll do well in a 3 gallon tank T___T He's just so beautiful!!

Atlas would love a home if you're able to take him, he's marbling right now and a really active guy. I'll be in the SJ/Sunnyvale for lunch, would you want to meet at a LPS in San Jose on Saturday or Sunday?
