Cichlids_au Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I think the glass would be about that price. Great deal, bet your kicking yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novafishy Posted February 16, 2005 Author Share Posted February 16, 2005 I am, Mark, I am. But I'm glad my friend got it tho, I've been pestering him to get a much bigger tank than his 7 yr old standard 4ft tank. How much is a brand new Eheim 2260 by itself? I asked in a more upmarket lfs today, and it was $650. I'm sure its much cheaper elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cichlids_au Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Aquatic Life has them for $696.60 Wes so that is a great deal. Your friend will be having some fun filling that tank I would suspect mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parrdog Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 From face value that is one hell of an unbelievable deal. You'd jump at that even if you didn't want a new tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
