yesterday on CL I found a 300g setup for $250- a great price, but what made it better is my pal chester(thehero) has liked my 220g since we picked it up- heres the link on the 220g deal http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=242174
so I call chet to tell him that it was his lucky day, he could have the 220g for $250- and then Im off to get the 300g-
the guy had 3 tanks- his smallest was a 180g, then the 300and a 400 the guy and his family were super cool- and with all those monster tanks, I was pushing MFK on him too
the tank was a running reef when I got there- and several hours later I was on my way with my 300g acrylic with center overfow, the worn but functional stand and canopy, one 50g garbage can of sand and one of live rock, a glass 55g for a sump, all the plumbing, 5g's of bio-balls, glass tank lids, and 2 water pumps, a mag18 and a rio 26hf, both under a month old
all that stuff for pretty much free- I know gas and whatever, blah, blah, blah, but this deal rocked out- my plan is have the 300g up and running at my place, and the 220g going at chets by the end of this weekend
ok I guess I forgot to post the thread earlier- but anyway, me and chester just got done cleaning, sanding, and repairing for the night- Ill take some pictures in the AM
