    All,

    Have a few items taking up space.

    1x 3ft tank (no leaks or cracks), black plastic lid, light fitting and stand.
    1x 2ft tank (no leaks or cracks), black plastic lid, light fitting and stand.
    1x 4ft Stand, was made for me. needs a coat of paint but otherwise its level and very strong.

    Tanks look good but they have some white calcium streaks on them, but a little vinegar works wonders to remove :)
    Tanks are empty and ready to go.

    Also have a 15cm Pleco (black with light irregular stripes) and a rope fish +- 25cm.
    These guys are just not workign well in the planted tank so they need to go.
    Will swop the fish for a baby pleco and neons. open to offers?

    Make me a reasonable offer for the lot :)

    Ps, tried to get a pic of the pleco, you can see it in the image labelled 5.jpg

    Yes, but it is only the tank, stand, lid and if the light is still working you can take it too. ps that is the 3ft.

    the 4ft stands dimensions look nonstandard - is that 121 x 45 (what I think of as standard) or 120 x 50?

    and that 70 high?

    Later F

    I didn't like how low the stock stands were as i have the tank as a feature in the dining room and when you sit on the dining room chair and looked at the tank it looked like you were looking down at it instead of straight on.
