I am getting a 400 gallon tank tomorrow FOR 50$ plus gas lol. I am sooooo happy I found this tank. It is 100"x38"x24" and is made out of wrought iron frame around the tank and two sheets of glass laid in the front, one on the floor of the tank and the sides but the back is made out of plywood. The man told me it has a slight drip it the front right corner and he never fixed it but I am thinking just throw some extra silicone on it and put some epoxy sealant on it and I am set. He is giving me 2.2LBS of cichlid gold and 2LBS of Tetramin Flakes. Also two undergravel filters 3 peices of tempered glass 36"x24"and two glass tops. Hopefully tomorrow he thinks its ok for me to pick it up. Tell me this is not a STEAL!!! My Managuense fry will be growing out in the 400 so thats the reason I am getting it.
400 GALLON TOMORROW

The plywood I am pretty sure did not get wet because the little leak was on the opposite side of the tank in a bottom corner so I don't think I should have a problem.
But 400 gallons on my floor 
Wow, just wow, how many jags are to be grown out in this tank...50??? lol jk. Are you going to do a huge species only tank??? I'd put some reaaaal monsters in there once the jags get to be adults.
Well I have about 400+ Mannies right now. Plus my female is getting ready to lay more eggs as it has been 4 weeks since her last and her belly is getting real fat and my male and female have been cleaning off the same rock again so I am pretty much up to my head in Managuense. Once they are all out I am keeping one jag and I already separated him. His name is Jumbo because he is huge compared to the other jags and I can see some blue fins on him even at 1/2". Anyways the 400 will be going to my Barred Midas ( Charlie) , Jumbo, and a couple Orino Peacock Bass with my 18" Pleco named Pete.
