    Hi
    is that 1m in diameter, and 700 high?
    also, is the glass just dirty or are there scratches?

    I've never used the tank as the plans I had for it changed.

    Glass or acrylic? Looks like glass if one considers the "back" that looks like a seam ..

    BTW what is your location - profile has no indicator.

    Best I can do is give you a 4 foot and a stand and some cash.

    Hi Pendragon!
    2 half moons of glass or acrylic?
    That stand-pipe plus hole in the bottom means it has a sump?
    I'm guessing 500 litres?

    A tank like this needs to be the 'centre' of attraction, which is often difficult to achieve in a standard home like mine.
    I would love to have this tank, even though it would present a unique set of challenges!

    no sump with the tank, it is glass, and that was the plan for the tank but as we are moving I have no use for it, would have make a nice wuss tank.

    Where does the overflow go to if there is no sump?

    @pendragon: many apologies, I have to retract my offer. It's 1m in diameter, right?
    This thing will not fit through my doors!
    Sorry!
    Damn, I was already sketching a lopsided centrepiece that would hide the standpipe and all...

    Yes it is 1m but it does detach from the stand making it about 750 high. the other buyer also pulled out. so tank is up for offer.

    lol there is place for a sump but I don't have 1 for the tank.
