looking for an aquarium to use as a sump
Looking for a 30 to 50 gallon aquarium to be used as a sump. I am located in Grayslake. Would also be interested in some used lighting. Please let me know if anyone is looking to get rid of a tank. Thanks.

I have a very ugly 40 breeder drilled with 1 hole. Great tank, just ugly. $35.00 or trade for coral.

Where is the hole located on the tank? I just made the thread so I'll see if anything else shows up. Thanks

Is the tank drilled? I was looking in the direction of PC's. All I wanted to have in the fuge section of the tank is cheato so I don't know if I would need to have that intense of lighting.

The hole is at the upper left corner on the back of the tank.

55s are tempered I think. I would definatly check it before drilling it. I am going to Jeff's house some time this coming week and I could pick up the tank from him for you if you need. I am only about 15 minutes from Grayslake.

55's only have a tempered bottom.

I have a 30 breeder for $20. I'm in Crystal Lake.
