    Talking 170 gallon discus tank..

    Well I found this sweet deal on craiglist for a 170 gallon acrylic tank and stand. I will be picking it up in a few weeks. The tank is in great shape but the stands need a little work to fit my new sump i got from tony . The dememsion of the tan are 68x24x24. Here are a few pictures of it. I will post more when I get the tanks.









    this the sump i will be using .

    Nice find Dave! I've never seen an acrylic tank with trim before. Based on the dimensions, probably a custom tank. Very nice.
