Buying used again and trying my luck. Here are the pictures they sent.

I dunno if i'm going to get it because of the fact that the sides are done with black silicone and the bottom with clear...Hmm makes me wonder. I'll likely buy a 32G kit and use 2 filters with my 32G and sell off the other heater.

I actually like the black silicone, I think its harder to see when waters added

 

[Oscarr19]

Same here but the tank has 2 silicone colors which i find weird.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

It may just be that one part had to be resealed. See if it holds water, I mean once you put gravel in you won't noticed the different color.

Mehh i dunno i believe we talked on chat so you know my luck with used tanks. I think i'm better off buying a kit. I'll have dual filtration anyway! I just want some opinions before hand.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Yeah it's your choice, but there's a lot that can go wrong with a used tank so you havta be careful

 

[Oscarr19]

Exactly i'd rather spend a few extra bucks and be certain that the sealing is good and was laid down by a professional.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

I don't blame you, I would only go use if I got an insanely good deal and the tank was in good shape

 

[Oscarr19]

Not only that i don't have my license yet so i can't go see the tank first. When they bring it to me and i see that they lied or didn't know about the seals i feel bad telling them i won't buy especially if they live far.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

I just got my license it's soo much nicer cuz now I can to the pet store whenever I want.

 

[Oscarr19]

Haha lucky i won't have mine until next year

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Trust me time will start going really fast

 

[Oscarr19]

I hope i've been practically counting down days for about 3 years until i can start courses.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Haha, do you have the law where you need to have your permit for a year?

 

[Oscarr19]

Yea it sucks hard.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Yeah that does, I it mine right before that law
