New (used) 75 gal setup - Page 2 - Aquarium Advice

You got that for $125.00? That's not a deal, that's robbery! [acronym:7d9b857a81="Laughing out loud"]LOL[/acronym:7d9b857a81] What's a new 660 go for these days - more than $125.00! Wow, nice.

We have an empty 75g sitting in our basement (maybe soon to be our new [acronym:7d9b857a81="Broken or cut pieces of coral which will eventually grow into a new animal"]frag[/acronym:7d9b857a81] tank). When we first tore it down, we toyed with selling it, but figured heck, I'd rather keep it than give it away - and that's what you got, someone giving it away!

Very nice.

Added 100lbs of southdown and another 20-30lbs of live southdown from the 45 [acronym:55ab80dad0="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:55ab80dad0]. Added the live rock that came with the tank and the rock that wsa in my 45 and the 20 [acronym:55ab80dad0="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:55ab80dad0] aswell as the fish from the 45 and 20 [acronym:55ab80dad0="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:55ab80dad0] tank.
