Default Anyone got an extra 55 they want to part with?

I'm looking to add a frag tank to my system and i figure around 55gal oughta do it. I seem to have missed the memo that said that the front glass of a perfecto 55 is tempered (but not the sides, it turns out).






Heh, anyone know where i can get a cheap 55.....pre-drilled preferably.

If you bought that at "a certain chain" store you could probably take it back! Their return policy is awesome!

Tell em' it was a pre-existing problem

I dunno - even that "certain chain" store might notice the hole drill marks on the broken glass...

I would also like to find a 55 to build a sump/fuge out of. I have sump made from a 29 gal if someone wanted to work something out.



I could even drill it if needed.
