Ok so I have a 32g biocube with reef lights built into the original canopy and some BRS dosers.

The trade would be for a 220G drilled tank with a 55G sump, stand, and canopy no other equipment.

I have a 72G bowfront that the 220g would replace and I think I could sell it for $500.

Is this a good trade? I need to buy all the equipment for the 220G. I already have a fuge light so could skip the price on the skimmer I think. Would just buy black boxes for lighting since I would have a canopy. I am thinking the biggest cost will be sand, rock, return pumps, and powerheads. I have dosers and an Apex I could add to it.

What would u do? Pros and cons?

The trade is good IMO. Not sure if the $500 will be sufficient to get the rest of the equipment, but maybe if you find some really good deals.

We are talking. . . . . .
You'd be moving from a Volkswagen to a cadillac- By all means yes. Just assure the new tank DOES NOT leak.
