i currently have a 80 gal tall tank, it is 72 in wide so i have found a few tanks that would fit in the same place that are 72 in wide. i would trade a friend of mine his 55 gal tank to use as a sump for a huge tank. i would like to find something that is like 200 gal, i have found some 220's but they are set up already or have stand and canopys already. how much should i be looking for to buy a used 220 or possibly a 150 or so tank? i paid 75 bucks for my 80 gal tank :)

p.s. i would rather have a predrilled w/ over flow's rather than using the u tube over flow box's

a 210 gallon all glass aquarium (72 inches long) without overflows will run you in the 700 dollar range if you went through a local store, thats what we charge here. Drilled will be more, not sure how much more off the top of my head. Might want to pick up a used one or find a deal somewhere online. Another possible choice is the 150 or 180. 180's are really nice because of the extra width. They run in the similar range as a 210 but a bit cheaper.

i got a awsome deal on my 150 imo.. it came w/ stand,canopy,lights,sump,return pump for 300.. only thing about it i don't like is i can't reach the bottom of it even if i take the canopy off! just keep looking in the paper and try on ebay alot of people sell tanks on there.. as far as price its gonna depend on if its scratched up or whatnot and why they are selling it.. good luck on your search!
