View Full Version : Good place to buy a tank in ATL? izib 08-17-2006, 8:24 AM Where is the best/cheapest place to buy a tank in Atlanta? Im looking for an AGA 90gal RR. msnajkowski 08-17-2006, 11:18 AM I got my tank a Madisons reef in Woodstock. I got a 56 Gal tank with glass top for $129.00 KuLLaS 08-17-2006, 5:28 PM i have a 125g setup willing to sell cheap Sprayin70 08-17-2006, 5:47 PM How much? Thanks KuLLaS 08-17-2006, 6:35 PM For the whole setup or just the tank? izib 08-19-2006, 8:24 AM Kullas, Check your PMs KuLLaS 08-19-2006, 8:33 AM PM sent back :) jmaneyapanda 08-19-2006, 9:47 AM Kullas, before you buy, I have a 90 gallan AGA that is used, but still in good condition, that I am upgrading to a 210 this week coming up. I was gonna put it up for sale after I made the switch, but since you're inquiring.... I am only up in Blue Ridge too, so your more than welcome to come up and see it if you want. Give me a call- 706-632-5011. I can even work oput a deal if you might be able to help me with the switch!! jmaneyapanda 08-19-2006, 10:07 AM BTW, it has an overflow (corner), comes with modern series stand, canopy, 2X175 watt MH, 2X96 w PC actinic, blueline dual 175 e ballast, and lots of others. It is used, but it pretty good condition. tsciarini 08-19-2006, 10:16 AM Realistically if youre looking to setup your frist tank... do what you can to try to find used equipment. Taking your time to research what you want will give you the time to see what comes available. There's always good deals floating around (floating...HA!). jmaneyapanda 08-19-2006, 11:26 AM I should read better. Kullas, Im sorry, I thought you were looking for a 90. Izib, all this previous info, of course, also applies to you. KuLLaS 08-19-2006, 12:54 PM :) johnqx4 08-19-2006, 5:18 PM Just remember, cost of the tank is a joke compared to all the other stuff. tsciarini 08-19-2006, 5:25 PM Just remember, cost of the tank is a joke compared to all the other stuff. True... but if you can buy a new tank and stand for $1000, then find the same size tank(and stand) for $500 used (which is not unrealistic). That seems like a pretty significant difference to me. That extra $500 can get you setup with MHs. tsciarini 08-19-2006, 5:27 PM Shameful self promotion: http://www.atlantareefclub.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1046 johnqx4 08-20-2006, 4:41 AM Can't argue with that.... BTW. 1/2 of my tanks are used (that is probably the half that I didnt plan to set up... it just sort of happened after a few to many beers :) I just recently bought a propagation tank. 1' deep, 1' wide, 4' long (30 gallons) for 15 dollars. now I just have the $50 per gallon estimate to add for total setup. tank = $15 all other stuff = $50 x 30 = $1500.00 beer, wine and liquor = priceless :cheers: izib 08-20-2006, 9:03 AM jmaneyapanda, I just PMed you. Ill be back in town tonight and then gone again on Mon/Tues, then Ill be back for a few days. As for the others, thanks for the comments. Its not my first tank, Im just new to ATL so Im trying to get some advice. Not to say I know what Im doing though... My sister has been keeping my tank back home (bad idea) so I figured since i have to move it all anyways I should upgrade slightly. Im having a hard time convincing the other half to let me get a 6' long tank though... Although for the price of k's 125gal I might be able... dorian965 08-20-2006, 6:07 PM kullas, how much for the 125. is it reef ready?thanks , dorian KuLLaS 08-20-2006, 6:27 PM Here is the thread for it http://thereeftank.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80613 sorry its on the TRT but :( maybe all will forgive me |
