This is my new 300g 8x2x2.5 that I just got for $150 including delivery, :headbang2 It's gonna need to be recaulked b/c the previous owner did it and it looks horrible. The plastic trim was cracking at the corners so they made some custom metal trim to go around the top and bottom. I'm also going to have to build a stand for it. I'll get better pics tomorrow...
 
SCORE!!!! Nice pick up bro!!!
 
I would take off that metal band around the top, it'll surely rust. I would replace it with a couple (maybe three) of 1/2" thick euro braces. I'd also paint the back and trim black and use black silicone when resealing. But that's just what I would do.;)

Good luck and awesome score. What's going in it?
 
I don't know what's going in it yet. I'd like to put my Florida gar and my little belly crawler pike in it. I know someone selling an 11" golf wolf so I was thinking about getting that... and thanks for the congrats. Don't really have the room for it, but I knew I couldn't pass up that size for the price.

I'm probably going to paint the stuff black and the background b/c I like the black on black "theme". What are euro braces? I'm drawing a blank for some reason, :screwy:
