Great suggestions! This may be your best bet.

Depending on the pleco in question, I would remove it from the acrylic tank. Dont want him chewing on the surface.

Also a lone tinfoil, get rid of. Better in a school.
I also agree with this. Plecos can really scar acrylic tanks. I would keep Tinfoils in a school of 5+ but yours is at 8" so it's probably been without a school for quite sometime now.
 
Yes :( sadly it is just too big for my new house. Interested ?
Are you buying another tank for all those fish after you sell this tank? That's a lot of fish to split between a 55 and 100 gallon tank.

Mayyyybe. It still hold water and everything? Any major scratches? Still got the sump? Is it running right now?
Honestly I didn't look to closely at it while I was getting those clowns because he had already sold it.
 
maybe he is selling his fish with it?, if he isnt i hope he has a plan for them

I am a she :D
My fish are doing great and I'm looking for a bigger tank. I seem to have a "blue" thumb with fish - I didn't even know how to keep fish for years - learning as I go, yet my fish have never fought or gotten sick! I didn't have any idea for the longest time how often to do water changes, or that cichlids need aquarium salt, etc. I brought them home from the LFS and plopped them in tap water, haha! I have no idea how the poor things survived my ignorance!
 
What size tank are you looking for? I know that the aquarium store on Fairview used to have a 240g long - it was drilled and had the tank, stand & canopy. Not sure if that would work for you though since the 225g was too big for your place?
 
Yea I did, thank you for sending those :) - I did respond to that email, did you not receive it?
