ok so hears the story i am working on getting my 220 gallon up and running but needing a few things one being a 55 or 75 gallon to make a sump . well i posted some air nail guns on clist for trade for one when i got a call guy says i have a few tanks to trade as i really need the air guns so i went over and and all i seen was a 30 gallon and 10 gallon setting there . i was disappointed to say the least but at least it was only a 15 min drive lol . so was telling the guy i would not be able to make the trade as it was not what i was needing when he said i have one more tank setting in the way back of this building if you want to take a look at that one i said sure after walking threw a maze of thing there it set still not what i was looking for but i felt bad for the guy as he really needed what i brought but did not have the funds to buy them so i said yea i will take that one . well here it is needs cleaned up but i never seen a tank built like this before hoping one of you guys have seen this before so i can list it for sale on the list in hopes for a 75 gallon tank to make a sump out of . this tank according to the measurements is around 70 gals . thanks for any help

looks like it has euro braces for support, black box is your over flow to a sump. stand and lid. hole in the lid is for the return. clean it up and you have a good start. :)

Greetings, Ottawa. Tiskilwa here.
The guys that just opened the new store in Princeton have lots of used tanks.
815-915-8442 is their number. Talk to Chad or Heath and tell them Johnike sent you their way.

hay johnnike thanks for the info i did not know that . just moved back here not to long ago from phx az

jimmy frag i dont plan to use this tank rather sale it or trade just wanted to know more about it . its to nice to turn into a sump . i want my 220 gallon tank up and running lol . cant wait

i forgot to say the black box i am not to sure how it could be used for and overflow as the bottom of the tank is not drilled just the back where you can see in the picks
