Does anyone remember me? I haven't been on my favourite pet site in foooorever (hard times, what with people dieing, school, thieves at work, etc.). I'll put up a thread on the newly named Necho's beautiful plumage as well as update's on Hamm, Skooma and Sugar but that's for later.
Right now, I need convincing.
Ya' see I'll be moving 8 hours away to go to school in about two years. Because of this, I've been going through everything I own and downsizing when I need to. Hamm's cage has been bumped to one story because he's out when I'm home and Necho's cage needs upgrading (down in size, up in feeder doors and play area converting top). A new cat tree, less tanks, oh yes I'm purging my place.
The problem? I'm waffling on some of my decisions. In the future I'd like to have: dwarf hamsters again, maybe a snake, a community fish tank, maybe some mice and get into lizards/ other reptiles. Which is why I'm looking at my selection of tanks and furrowing my brow. Is it worth moving with them? I don't want to end up needing a tank and finding out I sold it...
I got rid of my 20 high and a ten gallon. I have a five, ten, twenty-eight, ninety, and a 30" x 12" x 13" terrarium.
Since the terrarium is lower than the tanks I was planning on putting in lights and using it to house my Venus Flytraps temporarily (I have no windows and plant-eating cats...). The ninety I want to turn into a plantarium since, again, no windows and muncher-cats. Who could deny an unlimited supply of herbs, anyways?
But other than that the other tanks only have 'future' possibilities. Meaning, after 4 years when I've got my vet tech. I'm especially reluctant to part with the twenty-eight since it's perfect for a myriad of creatures and I got it with the 90 ($50 for sump parts, sump, and tank/stand). Has anyone else moved with a lot of 'pet stuff' before? Have you ever gone through stuff? How did you decide what to keep and what to toss? Did you ever regret a decision?
