125 gallon acrylic tank only price check

[Kryptikhan]

Ok, so the buzz is here and I'm actually thinking im'a go larger.

I found a guy willing to part with a used, acrylic tank.

200 bux for this 125g. tank only. that a good deal?

How much are the canopy and stands typically for a 125g.

Many thanks to this community.


I'm addicted and im not even done shopping yet....help! :)

Thats not a bad price IMO.

Check it good for unsightly scratches though. Any significant scratches on any viewing side and I wouldn't take it...


You could build a stand for under $50 (nothing fancy), or buy a nicer furniture type stand for $300 and up.

Best wishes,

I did...needs full bottom stand to even weight. I have the building skills of a gimp.

I went from 1 FW tank to 3 tanks in 3 months. help....lol.

If there are scratches that i missed anyone have any suggestions on buffing products?

Well i've got two all glass brand tanks 72 and 75. 72 was just water tested and I like variety, so im'a try acrylic for salt water. Hmmm, seems about right for that pricing.

I read up on them and the benefits are nice....two of my buds have them as well for years and love em. So ima spend a few extra bucks and see how it works......
