Default 240 gal Starfire Aquarium $500 Whistler BC

My wife is making me downsize from my 240gal to a 100gal, so this is for sale. Comes with a stand. 4x4 posts, 3/4 inch plywood top, rest is 2x6". Top is skinned with oak veneer plywood. Its an open design, no doors etc. Super overdone and sturdy.

72" x 30" front to back, 24" tall. Three sides starfire, back panel painted black. Eurobraced. Not sure of glass thickness. I think bottom is 3/4" and rest at least 1/2", a little more.

I ran this for 3 years. It developed a small leak in the front left corner seem, half way up. The whole seem was cleaned out and scraped to bare glass. Whistler Glass sent a person to re seal it. It now works perfect, no leaks, its sitting full of fresh water for ages.

All seals are black silicone. They resealed using proper aquarium black silicone.

I bought it used. It had corner overflows thru the bottom. I removed those, and had Whistler Glass install the internal almost coast to coast, and drill three holes out the top for Bean Animal overflow.

I ran my return though the right bulkhead on the bottom, with Schedule 80 threaded bulkhead, plumbed to return just below the surface.

The other hole in the bottom is sealed with a threaded schedule 80 bulkhead.

Pickup in Whistler. Tom

Hahahahahaha. I think most of us crazy reefers have had these types of fears at one point or another.
