Friends and fellow aquarist. I am on the down hill side of getting approval to set up a tank at Kitty Hawk Jr High School. Ideally I would have like to do this at a high school, but because Kitty Hawk is across the street from me this will make things extremely easy. So as I have noticed a decline in our hobby, I wanted to do something about this. I have been in contact with the administration of the school who are very excited about my proposal.
I'd like to set up a tank, possibly 2 in the science dept. I have volunteered to setup and maintain this tank, while teaching mainly 7th and 8th graders about the parameters and maintenance of a tank, incorporating it in to their class room activities.
This is where you guys come in. I would be looking for donated equipment and/or frags or fish. I have many things, but would need some help. This is all on my dime and I'll need help. Please let me know if u have anything you would like to donate to the cause! I appreciate all the help I can get guys!

You are more than welcome to shop in my garage for used equipment and my frag tank for livestock. Have you decided on size of aquarium and stocking? Send me a list or post of list of things and I will check what I have. Great idea and good luck!

Right now I have acquired a 40g. I'd like to get one more, either same size or bigger. I have plumbing stuff, a uv light, a few pumps. I'm looking for skimmers, lights, sumps, and basically anything I can get my hands on at this point, as I say, beggars can't be choosers! I'm gonna make this work. Whatever I can't find donated, I'll just have to buy. I really wanna do this and do it right and get these kiddos interested and have them around when I leave the hobby to carry on the greatness.

I've got some GSP frags to get rid of as well. In addition, I have some blue mushrooms that are slowly trying to take over my tank that I wouldn't mind donating as well. I think Petco still has their $1 gallon sale, so the second 40 breeder won't be too expensive.
