racefan Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 That's a killer deal if anybody's looking for a pool.Heck it looks like there's 5 extra filter cartridges there.I have a 12x28 with a 6' deep end or I'd jump on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA2OR Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I was going to ask about using it for a tank.....I wonder if that would work. An outdoor tank using sun for lighting. I imagine the corals would like it. Could it stand up to the salt water though is the question. Nice pool by the way. If I didn't live in a small apartment myself I would most likely be interested.

Rick Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 From what I can tell looking at the construction it should hold up okay with saltwater. The big issue would be rocks which I don't think it would hold up to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CA2OR Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I would assume that the salt would be corrosive to the plastic....no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
