What happened is i offered a bit less and the seller told me to wait and see if anyone else offered more (obviously nothing wrong w/ that). In the mean time, someone saw my WTB ad and offered me a similar set up but bigger in the same price range. Due to the nature of my fish situation, i decided to take the 2nd offer and move the fish sooner rather than later.
Turq has a great tank and had i had a few bucks extra, i would have taken it 10 mins after his posting
