[brian242pa]

omg i just counted $ and i might be ble to get this wat do u guys think of this 90 gallon bowfront Saltwater aquarium i hope i can get because i wood love to hav a chance to hav a huge tank!!!!

 

[brian242pa]

cmon any1? i rlly need some help on something serious because i am thinking about getting that tank

 

[brian242pa]

also if i do get this tank listed above (90 gal) i would sell my 29 gal. sorry for double post.

Looks like a good deal, a little pricey in my opinion but it comes with decent lights which usually are the most expensive part of a reef tank. You do want corals and the such correct?

 

[brian242pa]

yes of course i want coral my 29 gallon wood stay up and running until this tank comes in then my 29gallon goes on craigslist! but do u think i should wait for a 125 gallon tank with a deal like this? also i cant really tell but are 90 gallon bow front really long or tall because i kinda want it long :/

 

[carey]

I think a standard 90 is only 4 feet, maybe 5. I woudl wait for a 125g if you can. I got mine for $100 with stand and lights (sold off the lights for $75 ) so it came out to $25.

These deals are not everyday but they do exist. i have an app on my phone that alerts me to new stuff when it's posted so I get first dibs.

I just missed out on a FREE 180 tank and stand. :-(

 

[brian242pa]

i think i will wait for a 125gal also and i think i would pay 750 for lights with it and stuff

 

[carey]

With that budget it's just a matter of time. i see awesome setups for that price range with lots of goodies and not crappy basic setup either.

Things to look for: solid, unscratched drilled tank, good lighting, either 3 250watt metal halides or a 12 bulb T5 setup. make sure it has a large enough sump, maybe a refugium in the sump and a decent skimmer. For that kind of money you should be getting powerheads and heater as well.

 

[brian242pa]

i really want the tank right now! and i just might get the 90 but a 125 i can do almost anything medal halides i dont want i just want t5 because im not looking to pay bank for electric bill i want to get tank befor school year starts because i am in high school now...

 

[brian242pa]

and im not trying for hard corals i think all soft. also at first im just going to put the fish from my 29gal in there a pair of clowns which are currently laying eggs on a scheldual, 2 hippos, skunk cleaner, and thats it with a bunch of soft coral i have.

 

[brian242pa]

sorry for double post. all obviously after the cycling, these fish would be the only ones other than maby like a damsel or something like that

 

[brian242pa]

omg i keep on forgetting to add this. my fish and maby a damsel for like the 1st month because money is tight.

 

[brian242pa]

i just saw somthing in your post about the skimmer, i dont care if they dont give me one because the one in my 29 gallon is meant for a 125 gallon, overpower@!

 

[brian242pa]

carey do you know a good website to get local fish tanks because there nothing even close to me on craigslist

 

[brian242pa]
