  • What size tank is this?

    Found this last night on Craigs list but I can't figure out what size it is being a bow front. I would say 72 gallon but it's too tall if they have posted correctly. Will there be issues with the cross brace being broke (they say cracked I call that broke).

    I would say that the tank is a 72 to 80 gallon bowfront . Even though it's tall , it only has a width of 13" , which the Seller probally measured from the end and not the middle . As for the center brace.......if it's only cracked but still in place , it should be easily repaired . Since there's no glass involved with a bowfront center brace , I would repair it with some JB Weld .

        I LOVE JB Weld, you can almost fix anything with it. Husband keeps it hid from me most of the time. Lol Thank you both for your answers, if they answer my email I am going to buy it. Should make the husband happy because then he can have the 55g to buy minnows in bulk.

            Thanks for everyones help, turns out it is 13" at the side 18" at the bow 48" long and 29" high so that should make it 90 gallons. Going to pick this baby up Saturday Looks like David will have to build yet another stand but I promised to let him put the 55 gallon in the carport for minnows. This going to be sweet when I get both the tanks set up!
