FREE Oceanic 175g Bowfront Tank

[bakbay]

I’ve drained & cleaned the tank 18mos ago. The setup includes stand, tank, canopy, sump, and plumbing. You basically just add a return pump, saltwater and you got yourself a reef tank!!! There are a few swirl scratches on the front glass, courtesy of my stupidity & carelessness several years ago.

Bring a truck and some strong muscles to move this beast out of the fish room. Super easy, double-door access through the garage.

Price: FREE
Location: Newport Beach by SNA

Some old & current pics attached for reference

The 90gal Lagoon with 2 gigs are already on the opposite side of this tank.

You know — if I get rid of my mini beer fridge, a 17ft raceway can be installed there… just dreaming out loud!

I can help you pick it up Jesse, when do you want to get it.

Very kind of you — it’s gonna be a long drive to Jesse’s house though.

The canopy is very lite - made from plastic so no rust. The stand is wrapped in the same material, easy to clean and in decent shape.

Seen this tank personally and it's one good looking tank.

You could have lugged it home... I think your fam might be okay with adding another tank to your collection, right?

You can always put it in the garage?

Anyway, someone is planning to pick this up on Sat.

That thought crossed my mind, but temp control sounds like a nightmare. Especially when it gets like 100+ degrees outside in the summer and 50 degrees in the winter.

Wonder how many people do it.
