Greetings and salutations! :)

I'm working on my last few systems and have decided to change directions: swap out my monster bowfront for a standard rectangular footprint system. Some of you have already come by and seen this bowfront tank and stand in person - it's very kewl and will make a killer show system in someone's home.

The tank itself is 67" wide, 49" tall, and 31" front to back at its widest point of curvature. This calculates out to approximately 325 gallons. It is made from 1" acrylic, and has 7 holes drilled in the back for a variety of flow/filtration combinations. There are some small scratches on the interior bottom 4" of the tank (corals), but they are manageable should you choose to polish them out. Relative to the entire height/perspective of the tank, once filled, they will not likely be noticed.

The stand is fiberglass (pretty much indestructible) and shaped to match the curvature of the bowfront. It is ~32" tall. Note: this makes the tank-stand combination just under 7 feet high...

As for filtration, I was planning to use a 60G DIY sump on this, and I will include that tank in the package.

Package Recap: 325G 1" acrylic bowfront, stand, sump - asking $995.

If you want this tank, you will need FOUR people to safely move it.

PM me for more info. Thanks!

It's neither a purely standard nor corner bowfront. Imagine taking a corner bowfront, mashing it so the curvature is more cylindrical than circular, and then lopping of the back corner. This gives it a flat back, two straight sides, and then a huge curved front. Depending on the calculation, it is anywhere from 325-360 gallons, so I was conservative and said "325"... :)

And yeah, if it doesn't sell, you know I'll trick it out and turn it into some kind of crazy severum/uaru/bichir tank or something like that... LOL
