300gal. Tenecor project

AW2EOD · 10-29-2005, 02:22 AM

I got this thing a few months ago and have never set it up. Unfortunately, it wont fit into my basement, without me ripping out like a 6' section of a wall and then rebuilding it.

Originally, I was looking at getting $1500 for it as that's considerably less than what I paid, but now I just want to get rid of the damned thing. Every time I look at it, it just pisses me off cause I cant use it. lol!

It's acrylic and measures 96" x 24" x 31"...3/4" sides, front and back and 1/2" thick bottom and top. Dual, built in megaflows, each drilled for 2 returns each.

I'm in Chicago. I dont know how many of you are near me.

I'll let it go for $1000 OBO.

PM me or email me.

Thanks,

Andy

damn,,,great deal...do you deliver..lol

AW2EOD · 10-29-2005, 02:29 AM

lol! You provide the booze and single women and I'll certainly bring it out.

I had such grand things planned for this thing and didnt even measure my doorway and 90 degree turn down the basement stairs before buying it...such a stupid mistake.

I've considered cutting it apart and using the acrylic for viewing windows in the 2000gal. pond I'm going to built but just cant bring myself to destroy just a good looking tank.

livingreef2004 · 10-29-2005, 03:06 AM

I have to agree that you need to get it down there.
Did you ever think of having Bilco doors put in your basment? http://www.bilco.com/

AW2EOD · 10-29-2005, 06:08 AM

I was convinced to just sell it....now, you guys are convincing me otherwise. hahha

Ahhhh, the constant battle is overwhelming! hahaha!

Take a beep breath......Close your eyes..... Breath in.....Breath out.....Breath in.....

Woodstock · 10-29-2005, 01:27 PM

... i get dizzy when i close my eyes.... it's either the peach brandy or i'm breathing too deeply..... I'll try again tomorrow....

Kensn · 10-29-2005, 01:29 PM

I don't think it is from closing your eyes, or the Brandy........

Woodstock · 10-29-2005, 03:38 PM

LOL... The color of my hair has nothing to do with it

AW2EOD · 10-29-2005, 07:48 PM

Alright...well, let's give this a shot. Can a mod move this from the selling forum into an appropriate spot?

I wanna get your opinions about the best course of action for this project.

Here are pictures of the wall I'd have to cut out to move the tank into the basement. It's only a dividing wall...not load bearing or anything.
