Wahoo! I got permission to upgrade. Happy dance!
Pays to have family that want the tank in their house even if I'm not there!

Looking for about a 120g tank. Ive got room for something 4ft wide in the spot I'm thinking of, so a 120 gallon (4x2x2) would be ideal, but if you have something deeper front to back, that would work as well. I want to cram the maximum amount of gallons I can into my 4ft space.

Ideally drilled, but I know there are people on here I could probably get to help me with that.
Stand/no stand, we know how to build stuff so that's fine.
And as odd as it sounds, I like the ones with the black plastic trim over rimless and eurobraced.
I will look at full setups, partial, whatever you have. Preference going to tank/stand/sump together. Id like to customize my equipment and re-use stuff on my current tank.

Just want to see whats out there, otherwise I will look into purchasing new perhaps around summertime.

~~ Please let me know what you have, how old, glass thickness, condition of silicone, etc... and price.
I don't mind driving for the right tank.

Thank you!

I feel I need to add some specifics....

I am on Van Island right now. Will not be back until ... Mid March or something like that. If I can find a setup by then, fantastic, I can get it set up and cycling while I am over and not worry about moving fish/coral over until closer to summer. Getting more then 1 offer, I will be comparing and choosing the tank in the best condition.

Please let me know how old the tank you have is.
Please send photos of the setup, as well as photos of the silicone condition, both the silicone between the glass and on the inside of the tank. I believe my family wants some extra assurance they wont have 120 gallons of water flooding the living room.

I am not to worried about the "prettiness" of the stand, I can always build a new one. Biggest concern is the silicone holding 120 gallons of water in a tank and away from the floor :)

Thanks again!

I've got a 6 month old 120 gallon rimless 3 panel Starshine. It has a white acrylic bottom and it has a dry pipe for wires. I paid 2000 for it from Derek. Asking for 1000. I will ship it and I can get you an awesome quote but I will not pay for the shipping. We are upgrading and need it out of the way

Wasn't sure what your idea of a reef ready tank was. Hope you enjoy

Reef ready usually means drilled with an overflow of some sort, so it can be plumbed with a sump and what not.
Which is what i got from j&l

Yup, that's my definition of Reef Ready aquarium too. An undrilled tank is just an aquarium, whether its brand name or custom, and NOT considered a RR aquarium.

You do realise I had all ready contacted you about that tank right? The moment I told you that I had 2 other tanks offered to me and what their prices were, you wouldn't even give me the time of day.
