Trading UP!

[Kaosu]

Found and add on Craigslist..150 gallon looking to down size to a 75g trade..


gave the lady a call and offered my 50g with oak stand and hood in storage and she said yes!!!!!!!!


so Im getting a 150gallon stand and hood for my 50g stand and hood..epic day going to pick it up in a few hours.

called and got dimensions on the tank, rough dimensions are 24 deep 48 long and 25 tall...puts it at about 125 gallons..not 150 but still a major upgrade!!

so excited!!

pic of the tank as it stands...its Salt water and we will transfer everything to the 50g when we get to them.

I understand where you are coming from, I at first thought the same way. But what I meant by salt water tank, is that the tank was built for reefs. 125 gallon tall, 150 gallon tall etc are good for reefs. You can of course fill it with whatever you want.

Gratz, bro! I got a similar deal last summer. Traded a 55g and stand for a 110g when someone wanted to downsize.
