Is it just the tank or does it come with a stand and other equipment?

I wish I had about 1 grand. LFS had a black tang, rainbow cleaner wrasse, TONS of anthias, huge tangs and rabbitfish, sweet butterflyfish. Huge feather Dusters, 4" in dimeter, tons and tons of corals. And for 10Grand I could get a 300gal (used system) with sump, MH, Cooling fans, Huge Skimmer, along with alot more stuff.

I went and looked at it and it had some pretty big scratches
and he wanted $300 w/o stand. It was already drilled, and he said he'd put in two overflows boxes including the bulkheads for $25 and throw in glass tops for free but I just couldn't get passed the scratches
. BUT... LFS has a 125 for $300 brand new and it's not tempered glass!!! Or I can get 2 4'x8' sheets of 1/2" acrylic for $200 each (includes shipping) and build it
So... now all I have to do talk the wife into it...

Well their goes the post in another thread. That stinks, but a 125 is still good. That is a good price, is it just the tank or does it come with a stand? Get 4 4'x8' and then we are talking.

No stand. Just the tank and glass tops and the stupid "toy" lights. I'm going to build my own stand. All store-bought stands suck!!!

. Camping was really fun. My uncle I don't get to see very often came along with my favorite uncle. The fishing was great. Caught brookies, rainbows, browns and I think that is it. Sister didn't like the feeling of not showering for 9 days. It's called a river...lol.
Summer gets boring and I wanted to see what would be a cool aqua scape. So I messed around with the rocks (that is jut the stuff I bought, I still have all of the rock in my tank) and that is what I like best.
84 to be exact. Every thing is still in that tank....
oh almost forgot. made $86-$90 so I plan on the starting moving the things from the 84 to the 135 by the end of next week.

P.S going to baseball game, more pic's tomorrow.
Thanks.

Baseball game was good. 6-1. Had a cash drop afterward, sad thing got nothing.
But my dad, sister and best friend did.
