Long Night.... New Tank Needed.


I am now in the market for a 90 or 75. Would like to go bigger, but money's going to dictate this one.

Last night I was performing my usual maintenance, when I noticed a significant leak in my 55. (Which is quite old.) So I spent the next four hours throwing together a shoddy operation that would enable my coral and fish to to last... for a while, at least. Thank God for rubbermaids.

So if there's anyone out there who knows of something that might work for me, PLEASE let me know.

Thanks, guys.

Pete

I have a 75 gal undrilled oceanic tank as well as a stand. In addition I have an amiracle sump with siphon over flows if you want to go that way. I have not research the price of the tank/stand.

In a few weeks I will have a 72 bow with maple finish, matching stand and 260 pc lighting with moonlights for 350. Tank is 2 years old, and in near new condition.

Could probably have it ready sooner if you are serious. Pm me if interested.

Also not drilled

LMK,
Mary

That sucks man. I am gonna replace my tank in a few weeks and have good ol Superman drill it. I am excited because all the silicone that makes the corner is gone except what is between the glass(which is fine I guess) but the tank is older and the glass seems kind of green so i want to go with a new one. Best of luck to you and your livestock!
