*TANK IS GONE*

I am tired of this tank being in the way. I figured someone would have bought it by now. I have no history on it other than it was a reef tank recently taken down, definitely needs to be cleaned but otherwise appears to be in fine shape. No obvious scratches. Its 60"×18"×29". Tank, stand, tops, canopy- I was asking $550 but if you can come get it before Friday at 5pm then its yours for $150. Just get it out of my atrium. No holds, no exceptions. If you want it, move quick.

Doors were just taken off, not damaged, can be put back with 4 screws each.

We just tore down a 220g tank, it held water at the previous owners house but it is not perfect.. but it is also free. First come first serve, unfortunately we cannot hold it. It is behind our shop, if you come during business hours we can most likely assist with loading it. Enjoy!

We are at the ribbon cutting ceremony for Soul & Smoke today!

A long time friend of ours D'Andre Carter is having his grand opening for his restaurant in Evanston! A long time in the works, trust me when I say that impressive does not adequately describe the amazing design work they have put in and, of course, the specatular food we had the privelage of a first shot at! Already planning on becoming regulars ourselves, if you find yourself in Evanston in the near future please do yourself a favor and show his family some support!
