Re: Billyr98's Crazy Big 375g Reef Tank

WOW, that really sucks man!! However, you did the right thing walking away despite how hard I am sure it was.

The 300 that I bought used has a leak!! I now have to try to carefully remove all the woodwork around the tank and make an order for a new one.

I guess we live and learn

Good luck finding another tank.

Bummer man!
People have nerve. I can't believe he didn't say it was split in the middle. I bet that was the main turn off for you. Help could have been found i'm sure to move it but two panes on the front! What an ass......
Karma to you efforts Billy!

Re: Billyr98's Crazy Big 375g Reef Tank

Oh no!
That really stinks. Glad you walked away since it wasn't what you wanted. I have never heard of 2 pieces of glass on a display. I wonder why they did it that way. Specially if it was Starfire glass. You pay extra for the better glass but then have a seam in it? That seems very odd to me.
You will find your dream tank. It is just going to take a while longer.
