WTB: Fluval FX6 or FX4

Looking for an FX6 or FX4 (or similarly powerful canister) for a turtle that came into my care from a bad environment. Have him in a 150 gallon stock tank. I am located in Cecil County, MD but willing to drive within reason.

Fish for sale.

Hi. I’m shutting down my cichlid tanks for a while. I have a mixed set of fish I’d like to sell: 2x3 in, 3x 4 in and 1x6 in. Live near JFK HS on Randolph for easy exchange.
