I really hate to, but I need to get out of the hobby for a while. This tank was my current project to be built into the wall. My wife and I are now expecting our last child, so the fish have to take a back seat for awhile.
I have built everything here. The tank is all acrylic 0.75 thick cast material. The dimensions are 96x48x25. It has two external overflows that hold almost 5 gallons each. The overflows have 6 one inch drains with standpipes. The tank also has a single 1 inch hole drilled in the back bottom for draining the tank or doing water changes. The top is braced with 6 inch wide braces and has 4 holes for the water returns. The tank has no scratches at all on it. The tank has been full of water for a month now with fresh water for leak testing. I will drain it when someone comes to get it so they have no doubts of the tanks integerity.
I also have to go with the tank a 40 watt uv with a new bulb. I have a Sequence Manta Ray pump and
Sequence Barracuda pump. I also have an XL 4 beckett recirculating skimmer that I also built. I have a 115 gallon glass tank that was going to be used as a sump. It is 6 feet long and doesnt have any baffles in it right now.
I will sell everything for $2K or the tank alone for $1500 OBO. No shipping!! I dont want to sell the skimmer, pumps and stuff without the tank being gone. I will probably end up keeping them if they dont sell with the tank. Serious inquires only please. My email is
