Massive ~1,000 Gallon Acrylic Aquarium w/Filtration – $6000 (Phoenix, AZ)

Greetings!

I am looking to sell one of my large fish tank setups. This one is a complete 960G (96″ Long x 72″ Wide x 32″ Tall) acrylic tank made from 1 1/2″ acrylic. It is mounted in a steel base frame. The system was previously used until just this past spring for large freshwater specimens (river monsters) and has extensive plumbing along with two rear overflows. It comes with a custom-built 210 gallon acrylic sump, a 3/4 HP external pump, and a large sand filter.

The system is in excellent operating condition and all you’ll need to do is reconnect the PVC plumbing to the sump, pump, and sand filter, and you’ll be up and running. The system has very few scratches. A quick polish is all you’ll want to do as part of the cleanup while you’re setting it up at your place.

Due to the size of this tank setup, you will NOT be able to fit this into a standard truck. You will need to rent a large commercial truck (stake bed) or trailer.

It will require a forklift to load and unload onto your truck or trailer. I have a licensed forklift operator available to move it from my garage to your towing trailer or stake bed truck. The estimated cost for the forklift rental (you pay for the rental at cost) and his time is an additional $500 on each end.

I can arrange to help you get it loaded by forklift and, if you are local, also make arrangements to help you unload it at your location. Otherwise, you’ll need to make your own transportation arrangements.

If you want us to DELIVER it to you, I’ll have to quote it for you based on your location due to the variable costs for the truck rental and mileage. Regardless, I will not “pack and ship” this system outside of an 8-hour driving radius from Phoenix.

If interested, I can be reached at 562-726-7401 by text or phone. Thanks~!

720G Acrylic Aquarium System (Complete) – $2100 (Phoenix)

Now that my move to Phoenix is complete, I’ve determined that I have an extra system or two that I won’t be setting up after all. This one is a complete 720G (96″ Tall x 48″ Wide x 36″ Tall) acrylic tank made from 1 1/2″ acrylic. It is mounted in a steel base frame and has a steel frame around the top. The system was previously a salt water system and has extensive plumbing along with a centered back overflow. It comes with a metal canopy and has a super-heavy duty steel stand – 4″ steel bars.

Overall dimensions with the steel framing are 102″ Long x 54″ Wide x 73″ Tall. If you include the canopy steel frame, that will make is 88″ Tall.

The system has alot of coraline algae, but very few scratches. For those of you out there competent in buffing tanks, yes, this will need cleaning, but, with 1 1/2″ acrylic all around, you’ll have plenty of flexibility as far as how much buffing you want to do.

The system does not include any other accessories besides the blue wood paneling/doors and stainless steel panels for the canopy.

As for moving this beast of a tank, it REQUIRES a forklift due to the weight. I have a licensed forklift operator available to move it from my garage to your towing trailer or stake bed truck. The estimated cost for the forklift rental (you pay for the rental at cost) and his time is an additional $500.

If you want us to DELIVER it to you, you will have an additional estimated $500 forklift rental/unloading charge at your location, along with the costs for the trailer rental and mileage.

I will not “pack and ship” this system outside of an 8-hour driving radius from Phoenix. Sorry.

If interested, I can be reached at 562-726-7401 by text or phone. Thanks~!

Also, have a custom built stand by myself that is included, glass tops and foam for between tank and stand. I promise you that you would not be disappointed and it doesn’t come around for sale at this size often.Since i’m getting so many calls and emails with questions, here is a few answers to key questions asked:

2. Currently it’s set up as a freshwater tank, however can be turned to salt with proper asc. with no problem
3. What is included in this sale: 500 Gallon Tank, Stand (made of 2×6 and 2×4’s), Glass tops and LED lights
4. The price is firm for this, however if you have a 220 Gallon tank that is new, i’ll consider a cash/trade combo

300 Gallon Aquarium – $300 (Liberty Twp, Ohio)

300 gallon aquarium for sale. Was set up as a fish tank, but I think it would be better used to hold snakes or lizards. The problem I had with it as a fish tank was the center support brackets were lower than the overflows so nasty water would get caught in the center section of the tank. I tried to cut down the overflows some but that really didn’t work. Eventually I brought a 220 gallon and moved everybody over. If it was used as an aquarium it would have to be polished ( It’s acrylic). 95x30x23
