| Ok I found this Aqueon 110X on CL for $40 with a stand so I jumped on it It needs a reseal so i called Aqueon and they are going to send me the factory silicone free of charge to reseal it Apparently any tank over 65 Gallons and built 2007 and later has a lifetime warranty The gentleman I spoke to on the phone was very polite and offered the silicone to seal it just out of hand even though the tank was obviously built before 2007 as it has no center brace and never has He also gave me the part# for the upper perimeter brace with a center brace So Aqueon has impressed me and I will continue to purchase their products this is my 3rd aqueon tank Now on to the tank these are the only pics I have of it right now as you can see it was a sw tank but I will use it for fresh water both taken in the dark with my cell phone camera I will go pick the tank up from my daughters house this weekend as I couldn't squeeze it into the back seat of my car Then i can get some better pics The Plan is to clean it up and reseal it then remove the black paint someone used on the trim pieces and strip the black paint off of the stand I plan on taking pics of all the steps and posting here Dimensions are 48.5x18.5x32 outside | |

| Ok here's the next installment It took about 4 days for the silicone to arrive they sent me 1 large tube which should be plenty to reset the whole tank here's a pic of the leak test in progress looking good so far however when it got about 3/4 of the way to full the front left (as pictured) seam blew out so I will have to remove the front sheet of glass and reset it however this is also where the girl I got it from said it was leaking so even though she is a horrible housekeeper she told the truth I am going to just cut the whole tank apart and reseal it from the ground up because it has had several partial reseals over time I am also either going to build a center brace for it or buy a new top trim piece with a center brace also on closer inspection of the stand the wood is salt water bleached so I will just repaint it black So stay tuned for the next exciting installment | |
