Is this a good deal?

[wrassecal]

New Oceanic 135 gal show tank 72 1/2x18 1/2x24 1/2 cherry trim. Has 2 inch scratch on glass. Tank only. (Obvious consideration that scratch is surface only and water tested) $380.00 Would be buying it from Oceanic not an individual.Good deal or not?

If it has built in overflows yes, If it has a warrenty from oceanic....Heck yes!

James your new avatar frightens me, wrassecal is it a deep scratch, could one of those pencil kits take it out?

I'm still waiting for someone to guess what it is..>Not letting the cat out of the bag.
Aren't they all serial killers??

 

[broncofish]

either that or the doobie brothers

 

[broncofish]

Lynard Skinnyrd?

 

[wrassecal]

I can't tell who they all are. I thought the long haired one was either Jim Morrison or Charles Manson
Anyway the tank is not reef ready. It's not drilled. I can use the scratched side as the back. I don't know if I can get the scratch out with the kit or not. I can't afford a reef ready, the dang price around here is like $1000.00 for that size tank only. It does not affect the integrity of the tank and would have the Oceanic warranty (they only warrant their tanks if you use their stands)which I'm not using anyway, we are building our own.

Wrassecal - I'd think it is a godo deal - that is a decent price for such a large tank ....
Jamesurq - I want to say the oak ridge boys .... but not sure ifthey are dead or not......

The dude with the glasses kind of looks like Joe walsh

 

[wrassecal]

That's just the way it is, some things never change....can't remember and I'm usually so good at this stuff, but that song and piano riff is now stuck in my head -
Oh, yeah and I'm going to go ahead and get the tank

 

[overanalyzer]

Wrassegal - congrats on the tank!!! If I may ask how did you find the "scratch and dent" deal???
Jamesurq - the pictures are pretty fuzzy soo I am going to go with my original assertion - they ARE serial killers .... it'll add to your online mystique

 

[wrassecal]

Called around all the lfs's in the area and found an owner who knows someone.

 

[trompet3]

well, Bruce Hornsby sang "that's just the way it is," but these guys all seem a little to skiddish. Am I right?

 

[wrassecal]

Bruce Hornsby and the Range...hehehehe

 

[overanalyzer]

sure you see bruce hornsby and the range (Rainbow's cadillac is their best song!!)
I see
Dhamer
Bundy
Manson
several nuns I had in grade school .....
serial killers - I'm telling you - I am not going to be able to sleep tonight - wife is out of town - kids are tucked snuggly in bed and I have visions ofSister Mary Hellbeater running through my head -GREAT!!!!

 

[tracklighter]

One of them is definitely Bruce Hornsby. I didn't know he was dead. Am I way off?

 

[beefcake]

Those guys are all dead now ? Never heard about that.

 

[timo]

Keyboardests from the Dead. I see hornsby(I think), Mydland, and McKernen, A.K.A. Pigpen.

 

[timo]

Oh yea, is that also Godchaux?

I like the one that called Brent's eyes "like a serial killer".
No, not a stretch.
Keepin' it alive.
