Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

you would need people and equipment. Talk to fish gallery about the tanks tomorrow. If they could be fixed fish gallery would have fixed them along time ago.

You also got to look at them.  They've had reptiles in there, they are probably scratched up with the claws and the silicone is mostly gone if it was rodents in there.

Like Derek said, if Fish Gallery could have fixed them for re-sale, they probably would have.

Even their add says its for critters

I'll probably still have a look...just the prestige of having a 1000G in the house is tempting me...

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

The scary thing is that would probably only add 25% or so to the gallons in the house!

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

Funny thing is....thinking about it...I would have to rebuild it in place. Possible on whatever stand is built as I'm pretty sure I cant get a forklift into the living room.

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

if i was to move that big one,i'd build a cradle on wheels and have a flatbed wrecker load her up.fork lift would be easier.find a trucking co with a trailer with its own forklift like those brick haulers have.nevermind.used to see those big tanks come in at longhorn for a.e.  always wondered how they got them to their final resting place.got to be a forklift.

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

how old do you think the tanks are and the manufacturer?  

I have a 180g Oceanic (circa 1984) and resealed it 4 years ago because my silicone turned blue after I used clout to treat the entire tank.

Hmm.. what to put in a 12ft tank...  Lets see here... 1 pair of guppies...  Wonder how long it would be before you would have to fish out fish because of over capacity.

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

how many guppies would there be in a year?

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

I'm thinking the mother of all cyprichromis tanks

Re: Huge Fish tanks on CL

if i was to have 1000 gal tanks,i'd need 3.cyprichromis,opthlamotilapia,cyathopharynx.next to those 3 tanks i'd have a 55 with some tropheus.
