If you don't know how, or don't want to, use Photobucket to upload pics...then link back from there.

Where are the pics....
I came across a 265 running with about 120# of LR and fish for $1000.00 and I jump all over it. I had the OF, skimmer, wet/dry...everything to make it run. I just took the tank home and drilled it and made my own overflow.
Nice to hear you came across a good deal. If it was me I would nuke the LR and start from scratch because you don't know what kind of trouble the tank has had and what chemicals he has added to fight them. But hey, your tank, your choice.

Pics, pics, pics....
