I've been watching craigslist for a while now for a 6 ft tank... they just aren't that common in my area, especially at reasonable prices. Anyway, my husband and I drove 70 miles (each way) on Sunday to look at a 150g and when we get there it had no silicone! We asked the seller if it leaked (was given to him from his sister in law) and he told us not that he knew of... well I'm guessing that it had been used for reptiles and the silicone was scraped out when it was cleaned or something along those lines. Ugh. Last year we went to look at another tank that was homemade out of 3/4 inch glass, sitting in a carport with nasty water in it and on a stand about to crumble. Yuck, not to mention that it weighed a ton! I'm just kinda frustrated and I'm thinking that we're going to have to buy a new one. At least then I know what I'm getting then without wasting the time and money looking at these crazy tanks. I've also set a 25 mile radius so that if I do get crazy and give it another chance then it won't be too bad.
Sorry just needed to vent- you know how it is when you have big tank fever!
