 | 250 gallon dimensions |
bencoastie  Enthusiast Posts: 167 Kudos: 85 Votes: 1 Registered: 24-Jul-2003   | From what I was told, the tank is long, and about 2 1/2 to 3 feet tall. It is 250 Us gallons. Does anybody know the dimensions of it? The story is the vetrinary clinic where it lives is closing real soon and the guy is offering it to anybody that is interested. I have an insider  That told the owner I wanted it and hold it for two days. This is a once in a lifetime deal I can't pass up! BTW, it comes with EVERYTHING including s/w fish!  :%)  |

Unfortunately there is no 250g. A 240g is 96 x 24 x 24 and a 300g is 96 x 24 x 30. Sounds like a great find! Moving it will be interesting though ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

| bencoastie Enthusiast Posts: 167 Kudos: 85 Votes: 1 Registered: 24-Jul-2003 | Thanks for those, Theresa. I was kinda hoping it would be a six footer, though. Moving it is the only part I'm not excited about. As you can see by my name, I'm in the Coast Guard, so getting a couple of big guys to help is no problem. I'm only worried about how big the fish are, and moving them. |
