HUGE 955g Acrylic Aquarium on eBay
Freshwater game fish. Had it running for 2 years with the position of the
overflows I drilled, with the poser off the level fell about 30 gallons.

Hi John,
I think I remember you posting 'bout this tank on the groups.
You were worried about the (original) sump not handling the excess
overflow on shut down, Hence the beefier sump size.
What did you wind up stocking this awesome tank with??
Just a lurker

HUGE 955g Acrylic Aquarium on eBay

This is breaking my heart to sell my 1000 (955) gallon aquarium. I was
told when I bought this tank on eBay a few years ago that this tank was
once owned by Scottie Pippen the Chicago Bulls Star.

Can you imagine this tank with 1000 Neons or Cardinal Tetras
Tank measures 43" X 48" X 120" and the complete setup weighs 7 TONS -
YES - 14,000 POUNDS make sure before you bid, that you can fit this unit
into your location.
Included are the 250 gallon sump, parts for a fluidized bed, 2500 gph
swimming pool filter, 60 gallon bio ball & sump made from 30 gallon
rubbermaid garbage cans, and if you have room or capacity to haul it,
1500# of landscape gravel and 2000# of 8" cement blocks. All hose and
fittings.
Tank is bottom drilled with overflows in the corners AND drilled near the
top behind the overflows. Tank sides and bottom are 1" thick acrylic and
the top is 3/4" with 3 - 18" square access holes with covers. If you
have more questions, send me a message, I have many more pics and can
eMail them to you.
Tank is located in Portage, WI USA and local pickup ONLY, I have no
means to ship this item. I do have a small forklift to help load the
tank onto a trailer or truck but it will require manpower to get it
loaded.

CASH or Certified Check ONLY don't bid if you have no way to pick it up.
