fishandchips Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hey everyone, I want to get a three foot tank but Dunedin lacks tank builders (or the hide and they never come out to play). I found a tank on trademe that comes with a stand and hood but would like peoples opinion on it (price). Here is the link I have not found out the thickness of the glass yet but i will do that today.

HaNs Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 OMG a link to trademe....its the end of the world On a serious not its not a bad price(but not the best), also try and find out what type of lights it has and what the reserve is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 knowing I could get shot for this... but I think the price is a little steep as we just got a quote for a slightly larger tank than that for around $120. But I suppose it depends on whether or not you mind paying that much for it. If you dont then its a good package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishandchips Posted September 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 the tank is he tank is "80Hx990Wx50D" so i gather they mean 990mmWx800mmHx500mmD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishandchips Posted September 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 So i have scrapped that idea. I have acquired from a friend who was cleaning out a NZ housing place in Omarau a 900mmx400mmx400mm tank that was destined for the trash compactor. So a free tank is all good if it holds water and does not explode in the middle of the night. Ah also the glass is close to 7mm by my calculations.
