Hi
As i mentioned in my other thread, i needed a temporary setup to upgrade my 220g tank till i have the place ready for the big one. So, i went to order a 500g tank to upgrade the living quarters of my cichlids and plecos. When i told a fish store i know and are friends with about what i wanted, he offered me his old display tank that he can't setup at the new location(he moved his shop this summer), a 3x1x0.93m 675g tank with a 220g sump! He gave me a great deal on it too! The only problem was that the tank was spoken for by another person earlier and that i couldn't fit it at my house. The other person stumbled on the difficulties of moving it, so i searched for house, moved to the area i wanted to move anyway, and after a good deal of searching, found a crane with experience moving big tanks through tight spots(it can only get in from a front window, stand and aquarium separately). I have arranged to have it brought in this Saturday
Here are a few photos of the tank
Sump
And the place its getting through. I will set it up along the wall next to the window
