Looking for Used tank/55 gal. or larger!


I just started this amazing hobby of saltwater fish and am looking to start with a used 55 gallon tank or larger. It would be great if I could find one that had a stand and accessories included (filters, skimmer, lighting, etc...).

Sorry, I'm not sure who Frank is. I just signed up for this today. I guess I'm looking for as much help as I can get. Thank you though! It's greatly appreciated!

its hit and misssssss.

if you are doing saltwater....the tank is no big deal.
you want good filter/skimmer, lighting, and LR.
thats what you want to spend the cash on.

Welcome bghly7, I am always happy to see new faces here. Sorry I don't have any tanks for sale. If you are intereted take a look at "Google Earth: "Saltwater Fish & Coral Reef Aquarium Keepers" of the World" there are several Rochester Reef Keepers listed, not to mention the Twin Cities clubs.

Good Luck, I look forward to meeting you sometime. As soon as you get a tank up an runing (ready for coral) let me know. I have some I would love to give you.

Is a 65 gallon tank that is 36 inches long a good size? I've heard that u want length AND depth. I know that the 65 gallon tank is 36 inches long and 18 inches deep. Is that good or bad?
