Im having trouble finding a 50 gallon fish tank! If anyone has one i'll gladly take it. I need one for my two baby oscars! I don't need any accessories just the plain glass tank! i've been to the store and i don't want to pay 109 dollars for a fish tank. So if anyone knows where i can find one really cheap please tell me! im sure my oscars would be really happy. thanks!!
Your local fish store asks too much!
This is the site where i buy regular fish tanks for $1 per gallon, actually its custom made and you have to contact them first. I always buy from them to save money LOL

Hope your oscars will be happy!
Sorry I dont own fish but you could try looking on ebay or a pet store located somewhere by you! Good luck! :)
Sorry to say, but with 2 oscars, you really should think about a minimum of a 75 gallon tank, though 100+ would be better. 55 gallon is the minimum recommend for 1 oscar.
The 50 gallon will do ok for a few months, but oscars do most of their growing the first year, and within that time will need a larger tank. The water quality will be just about impossible to keep ideal with 2 oscars in a 50 gallon, and they just don’t fit in a typical 55 gallon tank. They grow longer then the width of the tank, so not much turning room for them.
And to answer your question, try Craigslist. You can find some good deals on there. 109. is about the average price for a new 55 gallon tank. So, it’s not that bad of a price really. Make sure you get lids for it though. Oscars are known to be skittish, and can/will jump out.
Well you really should have thought about that before you bought your oscars. If you did your research you would know that 2 oscars need a larger tank than a 50… Sure a 50 will be fine for now, but in the near future you will need a larger tank than 50.
Try ebay or craigslist… I bought my 75 gallon tank for 120 from my lfs…
Good luck, but try to find a tank you can afford larger than a 50.
I got my first two 50 gallon tanks from ads in the newspapers. The others (3) were bought from a store. Plus I had 11 20 gallon tanks, 1 30 gal., & about 10 or so small 10 gal. tanks.
It seemed that once I got started breeding fish the tanks just seemed easier & easier to get.
Craigslist
look in the paper
