My VA doc was going on pre-deployment training and gave me his oceanic 92 gallon corner aquarium with a couple eheim 2128 filters. That was in 2009 here's pics of it now
Ever score a deal on a nice tank? Please share

Dang, I am super jealous. When I bought my 93 cube it was around $575 for the tank and stand alone.
I was given a 90g Pemco complete with original stand, so the price was right. Come to find out, they are a collectible
My old man used to breed fish so I have an endless access to free 40b's and outdated accessories. And I do mean endless. I snatched up 3 and there's still a good half dozen in the garage.
I got a 75g, stand, tops, and fluval 104 for free.
had a pinhole leak. Fixed for the cost of a tube of silicone.
My brand new reef ready AGA 90g was $315. I thought that was cheap for such a nice tank. Special ordered too.
I scored a 75g all in one kit from petsmart for 50% off because it was missing a light. $117, son. That's a stealio..
The next 75 I got from petsmart was like $200 with lids, lights, etc. Not a bad deal.

Got 15 of my 18 tanks for either free or next to free (couple dollars) and most are in perfect condition.
Picked up a relatively new 150 gallon setup on Aquabid for $300. Tank had 2 built in overflows, 3 drilled returns, all plumbing, Amiracle wet dry, mag 24 pump, ocean clear filter with uv, wood stand, glass tops, titanium heater with temperature controller. Sold most everything separately for over $700.
Scooped up a 65 gallon hexagon tank, stand, dual fixture light, and prehistoric UGF for free from a local classified. Works well for my African community. Traded a 10mL bottle ($5?) of ejuice for a ecigarette for a 29g setup from some redneck that heard I liked fish too lol
Idk about u guys but I do garage sales only place where u can buy a 55 gallon for 15$ and a 45 high saltwater setup comes with everything needed to start a reef tank for 25$ I also do Craigslist or curb alerts
90 gallon for $75 came with a Xp3, Xp4, stand, lid, 5 air pumps, 6 heaters, and various other items. I got my money's worth with this one.
