Hi all, just found this on aquarist classifieds, do you think it is a good buy? -->http://www.aquarist-classifieds.co.uk/php/detail59_198252.php

I hope to buy it but have no-where to put it, my bedroom is in the process of being re-done, ill try and make some room in there
i will probably buy a couple extra filters and extra stuff of eBay if i manage to persuade my parents to let me buy it

I would also buy different substrate, probably sand, and bogwood for it, including a few other hiding places for BNs


That is all, apart from my request for your opinions.

Looking at the photos it seems a decent enough tank but you would really have to see it up close and make sure there are no faults. If it is OK make an offer, he seems in a hurry to get rid.

If your planning on putting it in your bedroom the floor will have to be solid as a 3ft tank full of water is heavy.

Is this for your BN's

ill have to get my Dad to ring up or something, the floor should hold it, i have a tank just under 3 foot in another part of the house on a cabinet that is full of videos and things, and the floor is the same throughout the house.

and yes, i would have a pair of bristlenoses in there , providing i manage to buy it...

I hope this goes well and you get your tank. Remember if your bedroom is upstairs that upstairs floors are not always as solid as downstairs. I'm sure your Dad will know if it's ok.
Good luck - can't wait for the pictures

don't know whether or not i'm getting it
just asked my Dad again, he says that we don't have the room, although the floor is fine, i live in a bungalow

ill keep trying to persuade him

the tank and cabinet look A1 ok.... looks like the old Juwel Rekord 125 - could it be the Juwel Rio though....

they are decent tanks - I have two.. the top of the cabinet can belly after a while if it gets a little water on it...
the internal canisters are not brill and the tank lids could do with upgrading but other wise a half decent tank

good luck and enjoy
