110 Gallon (WHAT SHOULD I DO)

[abbottstjumper]

There is a 110 Gallon (73x21x19) Tank for sale in the want advertiser for $225, It comes with the iron stand and also a very nice wet dry filter. Not sure when i'm gonna be able to use it but I need some opinions if i should buy it used or get a new 125 gallon, I currently have a 33 long and i love the look of a long short tank! HELP ME!!!! I WANT IT, I DON'T WANT IT, NO I DO, NO I DON'T, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DOOOOO!!!!!

I'LL TAKE IT IF ANYONE WANTS TO TAKE BUY IT OFF ME IF I DON'T USE IT RIGHT AWAY.

I just sold my 110g for $55 - needed to be resealed. And I paid $138 for a 125g brand new still in the bubble wrap. If you aren't in a rush, wait for a better deal. My20g, 30g, 55g, & 60g were all free.

Dave just curious what do you keep in several different tanks? Are they all going into the 125 ?

Like Dave said, I'd save your money for a better deal.... I personally do not go for those wrought iron stands. I like the nice wooden stands.... seem more sturdy, too. The W/D filter isn't anything more than a glorified sump if you're planning on doing a reef tank, so I wouldn't pay much more for it. If you hold out (if you don't have to this soon), you can probably find a better deal on something similar in the area -- probably posted in the sellers' forum here on RC. :)

where did you get 125 gal for $138

?????

The "plan" (which keeps changing). The 125g will be setup for 1 year or longer/shorter :) (while I look for a larger tank). The 55g will be a frag tank/refugium/sump, 20g QT tank, 60g hex will be FwLR (zoo's & shrooms & my puffer/Tomato clowns). The 30g will be a refugium w/gold bar clowns - they dig up the sand too much.
Possibly a 100-150 farm supply tub as a sump w/heaters/skimmer etc. Still looking for a large tank in the meantime. If I find a good deal I'll buy it, but no rush. TankQuest 2003 is winding down (I'm running out of room to put them until we move).

The 125g was off of E-Bay brand new wrapped up w/glass tops :D

Oh yeah, I know how that goes :D My latest and greatest plan is a 36" bowfront. But the stand options are:

- Black plastic-look from Oceanic: I prefer cherry wood
- Oak or Black wood from All-glass: Didn't like.

So I might endup with a non-bow 58G from Oceanic, the stand is really nice.

Or I might change plans again and get a nano!
