    I just got a sweet deal on a 75g Oceanic with stand. Its used and I didnt really need it, but it was too good of a deal to pass up. I could easily double my money on it. Any thoughts or ideas what I should do with it?

    I bought this from a guy who ordered a reef ready tank and it was ready sooner then he expected and was hurting for the money. I got it for $100 tank/stand/glass tops/protein skimmer. A ray does sound good. I have always thoguht about making a shark tank. You can usually find banded shark eggs dirt cheap. I coul do something with LR some choice corals and Sharks and a Ray.. but thats all just an idea right now. I still havent brought the tank inside yet, lol. Its still in the car, not sure where I will put. I bought on the spur of the moment. Like I said, it was a really GOOD deal. Too good to pass up.

    What kind of skimmer did you get with it? Thats a steal! That would be a little small for a shark tank. I would just do a FOWLR and make it an agressive tank.
