I have found a lot of my tanks at tipshops and opshops, so I advise looking there. If you have a tank then great, I&#8217;ll fill it up using whatever style you like so long as it conforms to my natural methods, (Enough plants to support the ecosystem and keep the water clean.) I do not set up modern filter powered aquariums. The tanks I build are natural and sustainable. An LED aqiarium light is the only peice of electronic equipment you&#8217;ll need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-text-dark-bg-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b2df77db855ca1c7b1868b83486fc280 wp-block-paragraph\">Depending on what I have to buy and how much time it takes the price of a custom tank will vary, starting with $50 an hour for my time and creativeity, and then enough to cover ornaments, (Which tend to cost more than fish.) If you want a tank with more fancy fish and\/or shrimp then the price will naturaly go up. If you are that way inclined I can fill your tank with $50 shrimp and $150 fish, but the end result is going to be expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-nv-text-dark-bg-color\">Please note, I can only set up fish tanks within a reasonable distance of my home. I am locaed in the Northern Rivers area, NSW. I will not set up tanks furthur than the Gold Coast or Casino without an initial petrol fee. The furthur you want me to come the higher pay I will require. <\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-nv-text-dark-bg-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e179d02927d62ca83a2416af59dea418\"><strong>Small tanks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-nv-text-dark-bg-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-a5ea6ea50d8133a8f58f1ce2f0f322bc wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>$330 is an example of a small tank around 35-60 litres, with reasonably simple fish, plants and hardscapes.

Remember however that these are examples, and not the set price for their described size. The price is fully based on what is in the tank. If you have a tank larger than 200 litres then it will naturally cost a bit more, but I would still be happy to set it up for you. The prices offered here are not incuding tank purchase. Please contact me if you are interested. I will need to know details such as all your style preferences, what kind of fish you like and so on. If you&#8217;re very new to the fishkeeping world then just tell my what you want a fish to look like, and I can offer you some sugestions. I&#8217;m happy to chat about it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-6bce5586 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-secondary\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/freyasfishkeeping.sotb.au\/index.php\/contact\/\" style=\"color:#000000;background:radial-gradient(rgb(242,247,7) 0%,rgb(255,70,0) 100%)\">Contact me<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I offer to set up a tank of any size, and buy a tank if you haven&#8217;t got one already, however that will be included into the final bill.
