This was the mess I came home to. I had to use a scraper to get the water stains off the glass and got a new filter and heater for it, but the lid was still good and the lights worked. I managed to decorate the whole tank out of things I already had collected over the years. I seeded the nitrogen cycle using filter media from my daughter's established tank and there is one old molly in there enjoying his new home, also from my daughter's tank. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I can't wait to start stocking it.
