FS: 225 gallon glass tank, CA.
Hey folks, I have for sale the former June '05 TOTM, a 225 gallon LeeMar built, 72lx30wx24h glass tank.
http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2.../totm/index.php
It is constructed of 1/2 float glass, no starphire. Right, rear interior overflow, eurobraced with 1/2" glass. It is in like new condition and was set up for under 3 years. It is currently at LeeMar's shop and was just rebuilt after having split the right rear seam. They disassembled the tank (probably just the rear pane), re-siliconed it and addressed the bracing issue that caused the stress on the seam in the first place. It is drilled for a single 1 1/2" bulkhead in the overflow, and 4- 1" return lines in the eurobracing; one in each front corner, and 2 along the back approximately 16" in from the ends. No other holes in the bottom or rear pane for closed loop.
The tank has been cleaned up since these pictures were taken. I just wanted to show the extent of the split.

I don't have pictures of the repaired tank but am trying to get them from LeeMar, apparently digital cameras are a commodity in their shop. I do have more pics of the empty bare tank when it was new if anyone wants to see anything in particular.
LeeMar will not transfer the warranty to a new owner (Believe me I tried) as it applies to the original owner only.
I have no qualms about selling this tank with a perfectly clear conscience. I would be setting it back up myself except I used the opportunity to upgrade to an A.G.E. tank with Starphire, PVC bottom, etc.
I'm asking $800 for the tank which is less than 1/2 the cost of a new one. Since it is currently in the SoCal area, I'm pretty sure I can get it delivered anywhere south of Buellton for free directly from LeeMar. If I don't have to pick it up from them, and handle it (again) I can go a little lower.
Thanks for looking
