kilmca Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Looking to go to a glass tank cause i'm sick of acrylic. Probably a Marineland 300 since there is a good deal for one on the forums right now. just need to figure out how to make a 6' tank look good in a space made for a 10' tank. 400g tank dimensions are 120" long x 32" wide x 24" tall. Tank was purchased the summer of 2008 and setup the fall of 2008. obviously will need to be buffed out. Asking $1500. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Wow - that will be a change for sure. Definitely some nice 300DD tanks up and running these days - Holly’s perhaps being the most well known example. You will need to retrain your tangs not to just swim in a straight line anymore. GLWS and the conversion! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is no joke, Tanks are simply not selling right now. I put mine up a month ago and it's been on craigslist. I have had a couple flakes, and a guy who was trying to just take the tank off my hands for next to nothing. I cleaned it up and packed it away and just assume I will have a better shot when Taxes come back. A 400 Gallon is kind of hard to tuck away though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Yeah - tough with something this size I would suspect. Awesome tank and great deal but not many folk are really willing to commit to a project like that. Of course, it just takes one so here’s hoping the right person sees it.

TheClark Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Its tempting, but I have a 5x5x2 envision cube with the paper still on it laying in the garage collecting dust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 400 Gallon is kind of hard to tuck away though especially 10' long tanks. i'm going to put it up on craiglist too but it should be interesting to see the kind of inquiries i get on this from craigslist flakes. 11 hours ago, albertareef said: Yeah - tough with something this size I would suspect.
