Wanted: Large aquarium (something around 2.5m)

I am again toying with the idea of buying another large aquarium (my oscars are battling a bit in my 1.8 m, 750 l tank) - something around 2.4-2.5 m long, around 60-75 cm wide and 70-80 cm tall. It can't be too much longer otherwise it won't fit in my dining room and anything wider and it won't fit through a door. I would prefer if it were drilled for a sump and on a metal stand. A sump would be a bonus.

I am in Randburg-Johannesburg.

Cheers,
Jonathan

 

There are some nice large tanks on Gumtree and Junkmail.

 

Also saw a few big ones on junkmail.

 

Thx. I would prefer to find on on the forum - safer. I'll look though.

 

I have a 2.1m by 60cm wide and about 90 tall with the water level at 75cm high. Tank has double base and crazy bracing its built by Kenilworth aquariums and has a built in side filter.

 

The big one in the middle

 

@Michael11 How much are you asking?

 

For the complete tank, stand, filter pump, 2000lph internal pump, lots of ceramics, dual 80 watt t5s, gravel and big wood and some pots. I was looking at about R7000. Tank alone is new now R12500

 

Thx Michael - your tank looks great. Let me give it a bit of thought as it isn't exactly what I was looking for. My tank is similar, just a but smaller, and it was also built by Kenilworth and their tanks are good.

 

I have a 1m cube if you interested in something different ...

 

Howzit @JonathanS any luck with finding a big tank yet

 

It's been on the back-burner for the last couple of weeks as I had to go to Austria, France and Germany on business (work engineering projects can be fun too). I was starting to investigate a new tank as I could then get it custom made, drilled for a sump, etc.

But I need to keep an eye on the old finances too.

Plus the gf is less than thrilled about the idea of another tank in the house.
