JK47 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Before I spend a ton on materials for the next build, I want to see if anyone is aware of any large acrylic tanks that are used and/or reasonably priced? Leaks, scratches, seams, repairs needed etc.. are no problem, my son and I like to restore tanks anyway looking for 8x4 or larger (any size with 48” or more width). No need for a show tank. Cash in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdxmonkeyboy Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 you will never find a 4' wide tank. 3' is hard to come by. you could build it for about $1,000 if 24" tallSent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear every time I build another large tank there’s two that pop up for sale after I’ve been looking for months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear on all but a side overflow? I did check last week but they don’t have anything that gets me excited at those prices. I’ll likely just move forward on my project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
