Should I buy this tank?

[CharlieTuna]

I ran across an interesting used tank, 300g, 120x24x24". It is glass, has a decent looking DIY stand and canopy. The stand is on the low side for my taste, probably about 20" high. The tank is drilled, on the bottom in four places down the middle. All in nice condition. No lights or sump. $650. What do you guys think?

I paid 500 for a 180 just tank and stand. And had to clean it cause it was acrylic(got beat).

Long as tank holds water and isn't scatched up Ill say go for it!!

No major scratches, just a few little one's on the back glass. I'm not sure what to do with the unusual way the tank is drilled. Probably seal up the holes and start from scratch? Though I'm not comfortable drilling holes in a glass tank. FWIW,if I take the plunge, this would be a Malawi tank.

Buy it quick... but you can prob get it for less since that is still alot of money with our economy being hit. Let the seller know what you still have to spend to get it running.

Be the squeaky wheel that needs oil.

Offer 6 bills cash.
