Why Have A 90g When You Can Have 300?

[bobf]

Guess you're gonna be having some fun getting that thing on the bus eh?

the house was built in 94 in FL, its a solid concrete foundation with tile floors and no basement so nothing to worry about there

Whereabouts in florida? Curious if you live anywhere near my aunt/uncle.

And wow, good thing you're getting a 300g tank with that panther grouper

the panther grouper will be GONE as soon as he can fit any of the other fish in his mouth.

i live in central florida on the east coast near cocoa beach

i rented the uhaul cargo van and drove 60 miles this morning to pick it up. it took 4 of us to get it onto the uhaul and i just arrived back home. now i gotta figure out the rest.

atmmachine...he originally wanted $1200 for it, got him down to 1000, then we settled on $700 plus my current 90g empty with stand/canopy

O so not a bad deal.


Good luck on getting it setup today

Good deal Ikon.

 

[ikon]

after a lot of planning (and fence removal) we managed to get it into the house and on the stand!

now i will begin to replumb and hopefully have everything in the tank tonight. late tonight.

[sianeds]

Congratulations on getting the big one! What kind of skimmer have you thought about putting on the tank? Is this going to be a fish only?

 

[ikon]

its going to be a reef tank
