Running 2 tanks is starting to become too expensive for me and for that, I'm getting ready to sell both my tanks and upgrade to a simple 57g rimless in a few weeks...
Oceanic 46g stainless steel model bow front tank. I picked this up from TIM a year or 2 ago. He drilled the back corners for me with 1 inch bulk heads. It has a stainless steel covered stand with black tinted glass push-open door. I also purchased from oceanic directly the matching stainless steel printed canopy. Only thing is I cut the back of the canopy up a bit because most larger light fixtures do not fit with the canopy on it so I cut the back so the front of the canopy rests on the top of the tank like it should and the back of the canopy rests on the fixture. Also, the problem with these tanks is no sump will fit in the stand seeing the width and the bow style stand. So I had custom made an 12g acrylic tank. I put 2 baffles inside the tank and made it a sump. It fits perfectly inside the stand. Paid almost 120 bucks just for the fricken thing to be made and shipped to me. But it worked perfectly! I also put a filter sock holder on the left side. Only downfall was no matter what I did, a larger skimmer would not fit due to width. So, what I did, was took a hole saw bit and made a 1 1/2 inch hold in the center bottom front of the sump and siliconed a small acrylic cup in place, that way with the skimmer inserted into the sump, the pump had room to suck water into the pump without restriction. Worked PERFECT for my bubble magnus nac 7 I ran.
Last important thing is... The tank is not broken down yet. It will be with the next 2 or so weeks when I get the 57 rimless. So, the tank is not ready to go as of today, April 19. In about 2 weeks or so it will be. I'm only trying to take interest in tank so I know it will be out of the way right when I break it down.
So to sum it up...
46 gallon rr oceanic tank
Stainless steel style stand & matching canopy
Drilled top left and right back of the tank for piping. (piping included)
Custom 12g sump made to fit stand with filter sock holder
Everything is in amazing condition!
$225 obo...
i am willing to travel about a half hour and meet somewhere easy to get to...
BIOCUBE SOLD!!!
