ISO 72 gallon bow front tank

#1
Hey everyone, I'm starting my search for my next tank. Would really like to do a 72 bowfront. If anyone has on let me know. Would prefer it to be a predrilled. May go with a standard if I can drill it and do my own overflow. Let me know! Hoping to find one by Xmas or soon after so I can get it set up once taxes come back.

Awesome, thanks Vince! I'll find out later how the mandarin does. I'm gonna try and train him on frozen foods. Went to Petco to get foods and I saw they just got two in, but knew their tanks aren't supplying the pods for them and all 12 scooters they have so went ahead and brought him home. May be down tonight or tomoro for some bugs to have on hand.

I have a 72 bowfront with stand and canopy for $250. It is not drilled though. I don't have any pics but can get some if interested. I apparently never took pics of the whole thing when it was setup. I am in South FOCO. You could also consider buying the stand and canopy and have Vince order you a new tank to save money AND get a scratchless reef ready tank. If Vince can't order you one, try D&G. They usually carry the standard bowfronts and might be able to order one with an overflow.

Pics. Background can be black or blue. Canopy extents a few inches behind tank to block light from shining up your wall. The canopy is low profile, but I had two 120w led fixtures hung up in there and the light spread was great in the tank. Also have glass tops for the tank to keep down evaporation and to keep fish from committing suicide in the back.

Hey, sorry I'm just now getting back to my thread. I actually went ahead and bought a 65 from Christensen on here. So it'll be a while before I do anything else. Working on getting this thing all in order. Thanks for the offer tho. I appreciate it. Just figured I'd keep a tank up and going before starting one from scratch.
