That's right. Come & get it. It goes to the dump on 8th November.

Its capacity is about 200L and its approx 1m x 60cm height * 35cm deep

Why free?

1) There are couple of minor scratches; you can see them if you get close at right angle.
2) These aquariums' lids are poorly constructed. The heat & moisture from the tropical tank causes condensation, which gets into the cheap chipboard they use. Mold, warping, and rot set in quickly. I have the lid (minor damage), which I suggest you take to a carpenter to use a template to build a timber lid properly sealed for the conditions. (Or DIY if you're up for a challenge).
3) No light: I can sell you my Aqua Medic T5 for $150.00. The lamps have been run for about 8 months. It takes the 39w T5

A display pic is here (that's the colour) http://www.aquaone.co.uk/Monarch_aquarium.php

I'm leaving the hobby. Watch this space, as I'll be selling the rest of my stuff once I clean it up and decide on a fair price.

I've had 2 people express interest; assuming at least one will take it away. You can IM me to add yourself to "the line", if you wish to take your chances. Thanks.
