WTB Used Tank

WTB a used tank bigger than my current 55g. The tank needs to either have an overflow already built in, or a non-tempered bottom, or if it is tempered on the bottom, must have a non-tempered back. The ideal couple sizes would be 65g, 75g, and 90g. Im very flexible though. PM me with what ya got. Thanks!

It might be worth your time to wait until some place has a $1/gal sale. You could pick yourself up a 90g tank for $90, and then drill it. Then you have a brand new tank that your sure doesnt leak and is free of scratches. Just throwing that out there for ya to consider.

One of the places over in Bloomington does this at least once a year.....usually. But I think it is limited to certain sizes, not sure though.

I have seen ads for these types of sales at the Chicagoland retailers...and I tihnk PetCo or PetLand had this type of sale as well. However, in most cases I recall such sales being limited to tanks smaller than 55 gallons.

I have a 90g RR AGA tank/stand for $125.
It's got some minor scratches and will need new bulkheads for the overflow. It's not a bad tank for the price.

Both Premium Pet Supply and PetCo have the offer occasionally here in B/N. I am sure they sold up to 75g in that sale, and I thouht they also included 90s, but perhaps its only 75g....
