Acrylic 150 for sale

Got it used from a guy that doesn't like taking care of his stuff. I was gonna do a FOWLR tank with it, but funds are tight and I don't have the time to fix'er up.

Here's what it is.

Its a Nova 150 gallon acrylic tank. It measures:
72"long x 24"wide x 20" tall. It has a single, center overflow box.

It has a black acrylic canopy. The canopy has 3 - 5' VHO's in it. I built a stand for it out of 2x4s and a 2x6 top frame. It is just a frame. A frame that will laugh at the weight of a full 210. There are no panels for it.

The tank itself has some good scratches as well as 2 cracks in the top. I took some pics to show the condition. It DOES hold water.

Any questions, feel free to ask here or send me a PM. I am asking $350 or best offer.
I am open to trades, but about the only thing I am looking for are PFO 400 watt HQI ballasts. Maybe a Mag 12 or a Rio Hyperflow17 or 20.
Thank you for looking. Happy Reefing.

Here's a couple pics of the cracks...


Here's where the guy attached a panel to reinforce the crack. Or atleast I think that is what he was doing...

skunkmere- It worked in a pinch to show the canopy up. Tossed the original pins, didn't think I was gonna use them. Of to Menards.

Motohead- Yeah, I don't blame you. I was gonna reinforce it with some 1/2" acrylic, but I haven't had time. If the cracks were braced(well), would you be interested?

So it doesn't come with the pencils?

Just kidding, that crazing is kinda disturbing as well.
