    Ok, I have a 55 gallon fish tank, black stand with storage underneath and matching tank top. I have the lights, and upgraded to glass tops for the tanks, I also have other misc, items like the heater and filters (not sure you will want to use them or not) tanks just needs to be rinsed out good.


    $100 OBO

    Its not an acrylic tank, its a glass one. I used it for a bunch of cyclids i had in it. I am sure you could use it for saltwater, but I could be wrong.

    You can use it for saltwater, just rinse it out extremely well not using any detergents of any kind and you'll be fine.

    can be used for salt or fresh...glass or acrylic wouldn't matter. looks like you'll need some sort of filtration system (bio, chem, and mech/wet& dry/ refugium(my next setup)/ tidepool etc.) for Salt and better lighting if you decide to go reef. Freshwater the basic undergravel and maybe a backup filter and your good to go.

    But again these are just the bare minimals...for each setup
    If anyone buys this and needs help setting it up, I'll be glad to help ;) I miss my aquarium, but I'll go'in bigger...muahhhhahahaha...helping the setup should ease a bit on my addiction to start on mine, for now ;)

    I'm with you. I work at underwater adventures right now and have been begging to work on the coral tank (personally, I think it sucks). So any help to others would be fun on my part :)

    Fluval 404 would be perfect. I use one with a single powerhead.

    Bump for a nice looking 55 gallon.

    I have a 55 I might sell to? I have a ton of African Ciclids if anyone buys his 55 and wants fresh water fish that can handle diferent water conditions. These Guys are pretty tough!

    Ill post a new thread if I decide to sell my 3 tanks.

    Good luck Impreziv thats a great price your selling that for, Id jump all over it if I didnt already have so many tanks!

    good for Freshwater, but I'd steer away from saltwater with canisters...Causes alot of imbalance...holds too much crap in one spot that can cause an ammonia, phospate, nitrate/nitrite spikes (That was my conclusion with my saltwater setup with a canister, after replacing it with a wet/dry system and few powerheads and a big penguin back filter, it solved the issue)

    oh...can clog as well...

    I'm surprised no one has picked this up yet, my kids love fish and other small creatures for pets. I'll check with my wife and let you know.
