Title: looking to get back in the hobby possibly
Post by: 2fnfast on July 14, 2018, 23:00:58

been out if the hobby for quite some time now. I'd like to find a tank to get started again. I'd love to find a 4' 120 display quality tank decent priced with a 40 gallon breeder for sump (idealistically). but I like the 6 foot 125's, and some 5 foot tanks. nothing smaller than a 90 unless it's a hell of a deal. I'm eventually going to buy a skimmer, return pump, and metal halides(do not want led, or t5's unless it's a supplement like the blue lighting). sorry to sound so picky, but I have some visions in my head that I'd like to see out. and not to sound cheap but I'm trying to do a somewhat of a budget build. I'll pay higher to ensure a good quality display, but I dont mind waiting out for good deals on the equipment end. I mean no rudeness in my add, just want you guys to understand where I'm standing in the situation before you reach out to me. pic of my old tank for attention.  it was a 75 mixed reef.

I was more so looking to piece one together. it mostly depends on your equipment/age of equipment.  either way, pm me details.

I'm looking for a tank only and sump only for now. I'm building a custom stand for whatever I find.

thanks, it's hard finding one. I'm really really hoping someone has a decent 120. I'd even accept a 7/10 condition

that's my dream size tank. but right now my budget is only around 250. I'm having to budget so my pregnant fiance doesn't fuss. which is why I'm going to piece one together

Jfishwild has a tank w/ sump under the heading “Kessil A350w” from s few weeks ago. It was pretty cheap
