CL tank

This guy seems to always have these tanks available and it's taunting me. I've been staring at them for 6months+ now. I just can't see how a new tank, actually nice looking tank with that thicker top and a nice stand can be cheap. Used tanks scare the crap out of me, and I don't think I'll ever go that route unless it's an ADG tank or something.
Every once in a while I look at aquatraders to see what new items/improvements they have and I saw this.

Little different size, but it's the exact same stand and tank. Blue Ocean brand. I know it's Chinese made, because everything from that site is. Any thoughts? Or does it look like one of those "If it looks too good to be true, it probably is" moments.

Thanks guys

Re: CL tank

I actually contacted the guy a while back as he had one identical but i believe only 44 gallons, he said you will find it hard to use any kind of hob filter or overflow due to the size of that top trim and the internal bracing. If you use a canister filter it shouldnt be a problem thougg

Ohh, good point. I would be using a wet dry. So I'd have to get it drilled them too. Good to know, Didnt even think about that

I believe this is the same ones that aqua trader sells. Aqua traders warehouse is in Houston if I'm not mistaken.
