I get home from school and about to go to class tonight and check craigslist for a deal in my area.(There are NEVER ANY deals around here. Tank 120 gallon with wooden stand.-$50. I email her as soon as I see it because I have plenty of cash in hand today to set this up even if it was tank only. I get there after about an hour waiting on a response and phone call. Luckily it was only 2 min away in my town which is only 1000 people.

I get there and there is no top trim at all. Ok I can deal with that because trim can't be too much money. Well all in all its a solid oak stand(Heavy as a boulder), a 125gallon all glass tank made in '95 and glass tops with a air pump and other accessories.

For $50 This seems like a good deal but was only able to get the stand home tonight due to time issues with class. I am going to test the tank for cracking and sealent problems when I order a new top trim.

New front/tang tank =].
 
wow u are soo lucky!
 
pretty nice deal :eek: i wish i could find that here. craigslist sucks for tanks here.

Make the top trim yourself if its expensive or hard to find. Nice pickup!

How do I go about making a top trim?They said it doesn't leak but I don't trust them lol.


Not to hijack the thread, but I also want to know how to make trims for a tank. Where can I buy the materials and do I use silicone to glue it on? Thanks, The Doctor.
