[font "WST_Czec"][#bf0000][size 5]Well since this is an off topic board i thought i would share this with you people. It kinda has to do with fish. My 7 year old wanted and got an aquarium for christmas man oh man did he ever take good care of his fish until this last saturday. My 2 & a half year old i guess thought it was time to practice his pitching that he had seen on tv and his target (yep the fish tank) a little steel ball was All it took to send the fish to a new home. The kid for a 2 1/2 year old has a rocket for a arm. so to let you know that 2 year olds and aquariums dont mix really well. [/size][/#bf0000][/font]

Good thing it wasn't my fish tanks! I have a 75 gallon and a 125 gallon set up in my family room! Talk about flooding!
Where are you located? Are the top, filters, etc from your tank still good? If so, I can probably get you just a tank for about $5. I also have a 10 g. tank with the really nice hood with built in filtration (can't remember the name of it), but that would be a bit more money. That top costs a bit. I would have to pull it out and make sure everyting is working ok before offering that one.
I would also have a 20g tank for sale, complete with everything and a stand, for....say...$90. That one is complete, cycled, and running right now, so you could just take it, fill it, get it up to temp, and add fish without cycling a filter, etc.
I would probably take boating / fishing / shooting / sporting goods on trade for any or all of these if you are interested.
PM me if you want one, or even if you are just interested in the $5 tank alone.

Oh yes what fun they are when they are young. My son, who is now almost eight, removed my wifes diamond wedding ring from the counter in one of our bathrooms and deposited it in the waste basket! I believe he was 4 yrs old at the time. Several hours later when my wife could not find the ring we began tearing the house apart trying to find it. I had emptied every waste basket in the house earlier and place it all in our garbage can since it was garbage day the following day. After we finally got a confession out of our son I spent the next 45 minutes digging through the trash to find the ring.
Sounds like you will need to get that son of yours into Little League baseball!
