Large Tank For sale (sadly)

[revenge53142]

i think maybe it 's time to let the dream die
i have a large interesting aquarium i guess i'm going to sell
don't really want to but i've had it for a few years now
and i dont realistically think i'm ever going to get it set up
any time soon

the tank is 190 gallons and is a DAS 3-D tank
DAS is dutch aquarium systems, they make pet store fixtures
and this tank was once a fixture in petland Crystal Lake
if you google dutch aqurium systems on their website you can see their products
the tank is like 42"wide by 48" long by 34" high w/ thestand
the actual tank height is 18"
water volume = 190 gallons
the filter is bulit into the back but i quetion whether you would want to use it unless you were doing fish only
it could however be modded in many ways and can serve as an overflow
glass is NOT TEMPERED so it can be drilled
it is very, very, very heavy
550$ (and you may have to see me cry as you drive off)

w/two-litre for perspective

in for a swim

[whirley]

[Soggy Pockets]

pm'd ya!

 

[revenge53142]

Plainfield????????????????????????????????????????
what the heck is that

 

[criccio]

I remember this tank being up on EBAY a few months ago and the location was Plainfield, someone posted the link here. I guess there's two of them out there, although, I swear those are the same pics from the ad.

I remember those same pictures too from the ad... Awesome tank!!!

that tank on ebay was listed as one-of-kind
i actually pm'd the seller and told them what kind of
tank they had and that a had the exact same tank
just a few feet away

they promptly changed the listing
these tanks are not custom
theres a lot of them they just were never marketed to the general public
to get one new they charge like 1300 then you have to pay to have it shipped from Texas
who would pay that
except retailers

Has the tank had water in it at all recently? Just want to make sure it doesn't leak. Whne would you need it picked up by?

 

[revenge53142]

although i've never been able to set it up
i did fill it so i could mess around with the built in filter
system
i wanted to see how the flow would move through
the filter as i put 1 or 2 pumps in different areas
the built in filter is kind of complex in its flow pattern
i wanted to understand it as best i could so
i could mod it correctly

there is no specific time i would need it picked up by
i dont even really want to sell her but
it's not good to live in a dream world
the tank goes to the first one who gives me 550$
you can pick it up at your leisure

 

[Rare Angels]

Did you sell this tank or is it still available?

 

[revenge53142]

still have it
there has been some interest but
as of now it is still availible
