But it would be worth resealing whatever it is huh? He said he wanted "somewhere around 100" so im guessing if i offered 75 he would say 85-90. BTW how hard is it to reseal?

 

[Camshaft Ramrod]

It might be a little awkward due to to the height.

If it were me I would put the tank on the floor and make some sort of makeshift 2x4 table edge to lean on around the tank. But thats just me. Not necessary. But yeah, you just razor it all off on the inside, rub it clean with alcohol, run painters tape if your anal, grab a spoon and squirt your silicone all around using a caulking gun.

That dont seem to hard to do. Im thinking this just might be worth it no matter how old or big. Im looking at a 180G+ for less than 100 bucks plus time and money on silicone is worth it.

 

[Camshaft Ramrod]

For sure.

thanks Camshaft Ramrod ill keep yall updated on what happens.

oh i forgot the mention, i just read the orignal add and it stated the sale like this:
""200 gallon fish tank need to get rid of asap asking best offer will help move to vehicle comes with wooden stand and brand new $150.00 filter""
Curious to know what the "150 dollar" filter is.

 

[Camshaft Ramrod]

Probably a canister. I'm gunnu put a dollar on Ehheim.

So he sent the dimensions to me:
"the dimensions are 18 1/2 in. wide...30 inches tall and 73 inches long"
Im not to fond of the 18 wide and the 30 tall. Much rather have depth and length, but i guess with the price im getttin it at i cant complain plus the "$150" filter. Correct me if im wrong but with those dimensions its more like 175 gallons right? He also said we could fill it up inside when i get there to see it hold water.
