They aren't endless, there's probably 1000 or so ending with censored pictures of a naked Jeniffer Lawrence........

You bought a system like this? Interesting, I don't think I've ever seen one for sale.

I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work.

I picked it up for $125 its gonna stay empty till i move in the next dew month then its going to becone a holding tank while i move my other aquariums figure it will be easier on the fish than staying in tubs and coolers for the couple days it will take to dismantle move setup and waot for everything to settle in the 200. If i end up making it part of a sump system it will be packed with medium to low light plants

A store near me sold the one they had a while back, the biggest drawback is, fish always make it into the other tanks if you don't block the waterfalls with mesh.

Yeah, that's what I figured would happen whenever I saw them. Would be impossible to keep bettas in a tank like this.

Anyone know how to polish acrylic?

If you check local mom and pop stores, you'll likely find a kit. Otherwise you'll have to order one.
