Sounds weird saying 140 gallons. I've had the same tank for so long. After 4 years in the hobby and 3 years with the same tank I'm upgrading my 75 to a 140 gallon, (48x24x28). My plan is for now to use almost all the same equipment from my 75 which was a little over built anyway.

2x120w Evolution LEDs
Octopus 200NWB Skimmer
JBJ ATO
BRS Dosing Pumps
Koralia 4s

Here is the thread to the 75.

100 lbs. of Pukani rock from BRS

The tank came with lots of misc. plumbing so I'm going to have to start putting it together to see what I need. I ready to get started!

Are you a DIY person ? Glass Polishing Kit
I recently bought a used Oceanic that had some hard water staining. This stuff ^^ took most of it out.
But I should have taken their advice and used the Diamond Fast with extra stuff for hard water stains.

PS I tried vinegar , mild acid ,magic eraser ,baking soda paste and a buff wheel. [no luck]
But be warned the method I suggest will take several hours.

The guy I bought it from ordered a kit to attempt to repair it but it's not something I have time to do. I hope he can fix it. It's a super nice tank eurobraced and all but it's not something I'll have time to attempt with my work schedule.
