    I think the last measurement is 27", but I'd have to go measure it. My boyfriend kept throwing numbers of various tanks at me when he was looking, so I'm not really sure which one we ended up with LOL.

    And OMG, the cleaning. Please, for the love of God, if you ever decide to sell a tank at least rinse it out!!!!

    We bought it from a couple who bought it from a guy, then found they had no room in their new house. It's been sitting in their garage. $450! Got a lot of extras too, like a couple of ballasts and heat sinks, a few bulbs, a couple of power strips, 3 empty snail shells that I've found so far and a few dried asterinas LOL. I don't think they even knew what all was in there. The sump is too tall for our taste, though, so we'll probably replace it...dunno yet.

    We'll also have to build another canopy, as this one has NO doors and is open on the top. I'd have to stand on a chair to feed LOL.

    So...this will be a really SLOW build thread LOL.
