Plenty of guys on here who know how too sump build.
Is $800 a fair price for everything the guy is offering? $800 for a 125g alone seems to be the norm, but with the stand, canopy, and lights, it’s starting to sound like a sweet deal.

Plus if I got this tank, I could get some of my dream fish. :D

Need to know more. Scratches on glass, age of the tank. How is the silicone condition? Stand would need investigated for wood rot. And, is it led light? T5?

This guy has obviously done this before, so I think I trust him. I would definitely need a video of the whole tank - inside and outside.

Careful with moving things up on the rack, your favia(?) on the left is looking a bit paler than usual, could be a response to the more intense light?
Not entirely sure, I’ll take a better look at it in the morning.

Good night everyone!!

Nervermind, apparently my body didn’t want to sleep, lol.

@shadow_k, I forgot to upload my fw pics, so here they are:

(iPad pictures don’t do any justice)

The 10g is a mess, while the 20g long is looking ok. Still some hair algae on those back Anacharis :rolleyes: I also just trimmed/removed, so that’s why the water is murky. ;Facepalm
