Riz Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) Hi all, My dad bought a very unique mini bar fish tank which he never got around to using, at the time it had a RRP of £2499. It is made from quality wood and glass and is a pretty heavy item, hence collection only by van with some helping hands to move it. It has a few scratches on the top glass plate but this section is removable to reveal the wood top surface. It comes with the pebbles and as mentioned it has never been used. We are looking for around £1700 and will consider any reasonable offer. A few pictures on my Flickr page.... http://www.flickr.com/photos/39891775@N05/5422833472/in/set-72157625991094144/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/39891775@N05/5422228327/in/set-72157625991094144/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/39891775@N05/5422229213/in/set-72157625991094144/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/39891775@N05/5422836238/in/set-72157625991094144/ Cheers Riz Edited February 6, 2011 by Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT_S8 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Have you got any dimensions for it ? I find it oddly appealing, although not sure where I'd put it yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riz Posted February 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Will get the measurements tonight as its at my parents. I think its pretty cool too, shame we never got to use it. Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saab Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 I've never seen one like that despite living in Essex. Had any interest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riz Posted February 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Are you sure? Well I'm not really looking for anything as I'm just selling it for dad. I'm sure he'd be open to reasonable offers. He is moving house so rather sell it than have to move it.Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riz Thanks Riz - Not that its a tight squeeze, but is the 1m 48cm width including or not including the top rail ? Does it have a light at the top by chance ? Cheers...

Cheers... I don't think it has but it would look uber cool with lights in the fish tank glowing up the floor :D Since its made from wood I'm sure it would be easy to fit some behind.

Riz Posted February 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Right spoke to dad, it does have a light and comes with pebbles, rocks and small tree thinggies. Riz :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I didn't comment on this originally for the reasons I think you've now found out for yourself.... Second hand fish tanks sell for next to nothing. They are probably one of the biggest depreciating items it is possible to buy. I spent thousands on mine and if I was to dismantle and sell it all off, with all the extra money that has gone on pumps, powerheads, reactors etc - I'd probably get £300-400 for the lot (and the Skimmer alone cost me that). For some reason they just don't hold money as well as they do water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
