[mcloughlin2]

Proteus, whats going on mate?

Am i right that most those tanks were purchased just recently?

And your even selling your giant gorami's tank! :shock:

[Proteus]

One was just purchased, plus a couple of new cabinets which are not required.

The GG's tank isnt for sale, the 6ft one was for the Bala Sharks but they are going to go into something bigger.

I have lots of tanks... lol :wink:

[para]

Proteus,

Are you a tank maker? Do you always have stock available? I'm thinking of getting a 5x2x2 few months down the track.

Cheers
Para

[Proteus]

No, I do not make the tanks.

They are built by one of the sponsors here, Xtreme Aquariums

[ryan]

Proteus - do you have any pics of the sump under the 6x2x2?

Is it still for sale?

[Proteus]

the only pic I have on hand is when it was cycling on a 4 ft tank a while back...

The 6x2x2 will be available late next week as it is being used for a photo/video shoot next Monday. I will get some pics then of the whole unit, although the sump wont be used as it is being set up for a day only.

[Proteus]

Here is a close up of the stain colour, and the fishy door handles (on the 6x2x2)

[Benny]

that black cabinet and 95G tank combo look remarkably familiar!!! :D



Pro's tanks are of the highest quality, i bought his old 4 x 19x 24 a year ago, and its a brilliantly built tank.

Xtreme rulz :)

[elvip]

Hi Proteus,
have sent you a pm.
Thanks
Elvip :D

[Proteus]

All tanks aside from the 4ft are still available

[Robdog]

as it is being used for a photo/video shoot

OK I'll bite. What's this all about?

[Xtreme]

FYI, the 6x2x2 tank & cabinet are currently set up in our store. The video shoot is being done by a production company for commercial purposes (relaxation DVD, screensaver type application).

The tank is now full of water and heavily planted, with fish to be introduced prior to next Monday.

Photos will be loaded over the next day or so for your viewing pleasure.

For interested parties, we are more than happy to put together a package on top of what Proteus is offering to sell all the plants that are currently occupying that tank.

[Xtreme]

Here are a few pics to start off with

[eatoff182]

Tank, Lids, Bulkheads, Cabinet.

I am keeping the sump to use on another tank.

I can organise to get another sump built at a good price, maybe not as big as what is in there now, but that was overkill.

[discus lover01]

very nice tank proteus and it's a bargain for what your selling at cant believe you havent sold

[Proteus]

Maybe people dont have corners in their houses anymore... I dont anyway (bought this tank a week before being advised we had to move out of a place so the owner could move in.... now we have no corners that are suitable... bugga)

[discus lover01]

That sucks mate and as i said it's a bargain for the price and if i was closer my brother wanted one of those tanks to setup as a marine tank.
and he would of snapped it up just to hard to move it without being damaged or being charged same amount for freight.

[scott bowler]

i have look around my house and i dont have sute able corner other wise it would be gone .lol

[IntoTheRainz]

and looking round my bank i dont have any money to fit for it ;)

[Proteus]

and looking round my bank i dont have any money to fit for it ;)

Yeah well you live underground and that would mean the tank needs to be carried down stairs.... yippee :P
