want to find someone on here who wants to pick up some cash... want to get the front glass,and bracing replaced on my 6x18x18 ... i can bring the tank to perth if needed, or if someone was willing to take a trip down and do it, id pay fuel, and beers(or whatever else u drink) and food.. im unsure how long a job like this would take... but if anyone can help me, or point me in the direction of someone.. cheers =]


admins feel free to move if this is in the wrong place..

very badly scratched... and the bracing is not to nice to look at...


i think im over buying cheaper tanks to get the job done, more interested in a display tank..

if i can get the front glass and the bracing replaced on this 6 ft. would make me happier..

dont get me wrong, its a great tank, and cheers to the member who sold it to me extra cheap.. but i want to put my malawi`s in there. and dont want the scratches in pictures etc

i have done.. and the prices they gave me are, a little high, not bad.. but if i can get someone on here that can do the job, which i know a few are more than capable.. would be better off for me.


. in saying that.. ill be buying a new tank in the next year. so ill be going to a sponsor for that.. thinking either AAA or aquotix.. both have good prices and good looking product

For the cost of replacing one panel and bracing just get a new tank or a second hand one in better condition.
