I used to teach Biology and I had probably a dozen aquariums between my classroom and the adjoining greenhouse. I sold some and left some behind, but I think I still have two ten gallon tanks that I can easily access. I have two more…Read more

Which at first glance seems like they are supplying these things, but later in the same message … “Please plan to bring all supplies you will need, including equipment such as tables, chairs, lighting and signage.” So ……Read more
