I will reply to all the previous posts, but compensating???
Umm no sir, I drive a 1991 s-10 blazer with a million miles, I'm pretty close to broke, I don't wear Armani, and this is my only big tank lol, except for my 135's.
I'm just trying to provide an appropriate home for my big fish.
When I get my 10,000g aquarium you can say I'm compensating lol.
(even tho I won't be )

I am still in shock of u getting that size tank with stuff for $300...............lol
so lucky!w
so lucky!w
So I'm gonna try to catch up on the questions/comments being that I have been working ALL THE TIME!!! can you say OT? lol
There will be lots of pictures trust me! But they will all be taken from my trusty iPhone unfortunately, so bear with me on the quality lol.
Yes the tank will be placed on a slab foundation, actually the only room in the house that has one is the fish room .
I do like the schooling fish as well, but for a tank that's supposed to cost $10,000 brand new, I know sounds crazy, but I have too much money wrapped up in my big fish to justify that. Shoot, I could buy 200 neon tetras for the price of my one Goliath Tiger.
I was able to pick it up for such a cheap price because I became good friends with the owner and his family of a LFS, and he got the tank a year ago from buying out another store, and he has been trying to sell it to me for a year now, but the dimensions were explained incorrectly so I wasn't interested. But he had to remove everything from his warehouse and the tank made it's way in the back of the shop and he just happened to show it to me, and I just happened to pick it up the very next day
It was a steal, no doubt about that, but no, it wasn't stolen lol.
But thank you everyone so much for all the kind words! It seems like the general consensus is that I am lucky, and I agree!
I will keep all of you guys posted tho! Just hard while working all the time. Tomorrow is my first day off in 15 days lol.

Make sure it is properly sealed and everything. Imagine it leaking or all coming down.

I work at a school and the science teachers have a ton of extra tanks they want to get rid of/ give to me for free. my problem is I have nowhere to put them. Awesome steal.
