I found the 180 I've been looking for!!!

$200?!?! Score indeed. Congrats!

 

Congrats on the good find and cheap price! I'd water test it for any leaks first before setting it up though.. Just my opinion that's really cheap for such a clean/nice tank. Still a very good find either way!

 

Congratulations Todd!
Definitely going to subscribe to this build. Going to be awesome! Again congrats on the killer score.

 

Thanks Matt, to do it right, it will be a few months before this is converted to my new DT- and that's OK

Thanks Jerry. This one will be it for me as far as DT's go. I"m thinking of adding a frag tank into the system for more total- non DT volume.
I did jump all over this, and was lucky enough to be off work yesterday to make the deal. I couldn't pass on this one- not in this condition for this price.

Thanks, of course I will, but as of now, all the seams still look brand new! He hardly used it, and only as a 'refugium'- he said 2 x 150's drained to it, etc. What I really like, is that there are virtually no scratches in the panes, and it's all glass. I will perform a leak test before it even comes in the house.

Thanks Will.
Without some basement wall mods- simple ones actually- my 125 won't work as the sump. Too long for the area the sumps in by about 6 inches. MOving that side wall in the basement would actually be pretty easy though, then I could put the 125 in the area.
I think I may sell my current system for Cheap though.- for $150-250 for my current 125, w/ stand and open top canopy, with my huge DIY intank over flow w. HOB overflow- I think it will sell pretty easy. that's if I don't just use it for my sump!
Selling it would make this a free lateral upgrade to the 180.

 

180 DT and 125 sump would be pretty rad!!!

 

Very cool Todd. 8)

What are the dimensions?

 

Essentially a standard 180

6 ft, x 2 ft, x 2 ft.

NOw I don't have to rehome my Royal Blue Tang, and I can safely add a few more fish!

 

Congrats on the find! I'll be following

 

Thanks Cam, et. al.
