That's awesome! Congrats on the find. Would it be rude to ask...... what did you pay?

We are going to need pics! Strictly for the sake of science...

I don't have it in my house yet but I will be posting so many pictures once it's in my house [emoji847][emoji847] but I have one picture where it is now

 

[Katrina71]

Thanks. Please update with pics of your new tank!

Congrats!!! Beautiful tank!! I would suggest getting with previous owner and finding out their dosing schedule and what salt, additives, etc., they were using so you don't upset any of the inhabitants and then slowly (if you're going to...) change to whatever you would like to use.

Thanks so much I love it. And That's what they told me. I'm writing everything down on Friday while my lfs moves the tank and everything in it. I told them about the salt I use and what I dose and they said that was fine. About almost the same as them so we will see if I have to write down anything else. But I'm super excited basically one more day and it will be in my home. [emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847]

Thanks. And I'll let you clean the glass just once lol joking [emoji39] well only if you want to lol but I'm super lucky to have found this tank I was just about to purchase a 125 gal tank by its self well with a stand also but I'd have to put so much more money into it to start from scratch. So lucky. I'll post pictures so you can feel like ur in front of it lol [emoji847][emoji847]

Some random things: 1.) get new live sand and toss old sand 2.)pick up a bottle of bacteria and add it when you get the livestock back in to help with any mini cycle 3.) clean all debris/ detritus out of the sump before setting up 4.) keep in mind that the trigger will eat invertebrates and you may be limited with what you can add with him 5.) try to use at least 50% of the current water or acclimate the livestock appropriately

Great advice, I just "upgraded" from a 36" to a 48" tank three weeks ago and did all of the above, so far so good haven't lost anything.
