Hi all,

Seen one of these online for around £50, looks like a really nice set-up; does anyone have any opinions on these tanks before I splash the cash? Hoping to use the glass lid, with the dennerle scape flow external filter; I'm assuming both fit together anyway.

Thanks

I have seen the bare tanks for sale for £50 but the cheapest I found the complete kit for was £150. I have just set one up and love it. My only gripe is that unless you have room to fit the external behind the tank, the glass lid won't fit on :bawling:. I currently have the lid just sat on top of the filter as I have to have the filter on the side of the tank. I would use one of my eheim ecco pro externals with acrylic 12/16 lily pipes on it but not going to drill holes through our nice new breakfast bar.

Hi. I set one of these up recently. Nice size and for £50 that's a bargain. The external filter is a bit of an eye-sore but perfectly functional.

I'm very tempted to go whole hog and get the complete set up for 150, since id need an external and light anyway, plus I think it gives you the substrate etc if I recall

Interesting, if possible would you please be able to show pics? As this could be quite a decision maker for me in terms of aesthetics, its going on a cabinet thats just covering the width front to back, so id probs have to situate the filter at the side
 
I have one for sale £30, pick in dulwich se London though. Great size tank
 
You're welcome to come take a look, I've been meaning to ebay it but I've been too lazy!

Lol don't think I'd be able to get the time, but I'd be interested if you had pics etc; I'll PM you
 
Mine didn't come with substrate. It also didn't come with a black backing which surprised me as the basic dennerle cubes come with a background.
