My wife's work has a 165g freshwater setup that they would like to sell. The tank is 72"x18"x30". It had a canopy and stand which are in good condition. It also has a canister filter and external pump.
I have yet to see the tank in person so I cannot comment on the condition, but my wife cannot see any scratches or anything. She thinks it's drilled (reef ready) because she cannot see any external overflows on the back side. I plan on going to see it this weekend, but thought I'd post it up for sale note to get the ball rolling.
Please comment here or PM me!
I'm not sure where to price this thing at, so let's start off at $1000 for the setup and haggle from there

Worst time of year to sell, cabinet doors need aligned, canister filters leak (so check for water damage), contents/livestock are more detrimental than beneficial. However, great dimensions. I'd price it at $250 and start praying. If it's drilled. If it isn't drilled... $200 and start praying.

JMO, and best of luck with selling it.

Oh, forgot to mention ( and thanks for reminding me, Cindy) wife took the gold fish out this morning and put them in the pond they have, so livestock is a non-issue. I told her to leave it full of water until I can see it and verify no leaks, ect...

Cool - that's a good thing. Have they ever put meds in it that would make it not good for corals/inverts? That's a question to ask the person who handled the tank.

After seeing this tank in person, I'm gonna change this to take any offer. The tank has many small scratches and air bubbles in the seals. The trim is coming apart. The tank will need serious work to safely hold water again. I'll leave this up for another few days If anyone wants a project for a real good price, otherwise I'm going to advise the owner to trash it.

could make a fun planter for a fish room, or in the same room as the DT. I love watching plant roots growing and developing in glass containers.

drilled or not?

Tank is located in Littleton. It is drilled, but for a closed loop undergravel filter. I would not consider it reef ready.
