Ok Guys,

Just picked up a monster this past tuesday. She holds 315 gallons. 96L x 24W x 36T. Acrylic.

God this one's gonna be fun. Will have a pic soon enough!

New or used?
On the same subject ; Do you have a hold on a used tank at Hanover pets?
Remind me to bring in your bulb tomorrow.

The math looks a little off. 96X24X36/231=359. Looks like you lucked out and got more than you bargained for!

Bring my bulb!

hehe

It's brand new, the owners bought it, didnt get a chance to set it up and have moved twice, and DO NOT want to move it a third time. I practically stole it. It's still shrink-wrapped, and the acrylic still has the protective "peel-off" sheeting.

As for the used 180, I tried to buy that, as a matter of fact, I went in there on the day that the original purchaser decided to take it off hold, but the wife said no at that time (we were a week away from the honeymoon). When I got back I found out it was bought (paid in full) by some 11 year old while I was gone!!@!!!! I guess some things just happen for a reason, eh?

As for sizing, I've seen 3 different volumes for those dimensions on manufacturers websites, 305, 315 and 360. I'll take your word that it's a 360 :)

:lol: :frog:
I'm green jelous over the 360.
The 180 is still sitting there.:confused:

That 180 is still sitting there cause the "kid" hasn't picked it up yet. His name and number are on the side of the tank in crayon, it's some oriental kid.

From what I understand, this kid also dropped $150 on a tesselata eel a few weeks ago, and spends quite a bit of dough in that store.

Why, when I was 11, was it hard as heck to save up $4.95 for a GI Joe figure, and this kids dropping hundred dollar bills as if they were pennies?????
