Because of a Gracious Donation by Aquatic Interiors Unlimited, MAAST has acquired about 40...YES 40 -24" x 24" x 12" Tanks that are drilled in the bottom and were used for freshwater. I and MAAST do not have enough room to store these, so we are offering these for as long as they last for $20 each. I will be picking these up Sunday and will be able to post a few pictures. Just wanted to put this out there and if you are interested in getting first pick, they will be at my house hopefully Sunday afternoon. This is a great tank size. I will PM my address to anyone interested but we want to not make my house a "madhouse", so viewing times will be limited.

BIGBIRD123

Because of the overwhelming response, I will post my address here because I don't want to have to try and PM everyone.

I will be picking these up at about 1-1:30 pm tomorrow. I should be home by 3 pm. Please allow me the time to get home. We will do this in the order of acceptance. If not, they will be done by appointment. If possible pay by cash or check but you can pay by Paypal to treasurer@maast.org. If you pay by paypal, bring confirmation of payment sent. This is a FUNDRAISER for MAAST and ALL money collected if for MAAST. Please be orderly and respectful, as this is My Home.

For all who have been waiting...

wow. those went quick. quick word of advice, be very careful if you are trying to remove the "plug" from the bottom of the tank, it is much, much easier to drill another hole. Between me and the bossman, we broke at least 8 of these tanks trying to get that piece off.
