    Well, my wife and me were asked to move to IL for our job. Well we had a 125 gallon for about 18 months but, when we moved we didn't have a chance to bring our big setup with us. Well it has been about 5 weeks since I took my 125 down. Im already missing it. So I checked around here and no one had the tank I wanted. I get on craigslist and find it a 90 gallon drilled... for $300. It was bought new in july and now sits in my living room. Also came with the stand! The guy I bought it from was super helpful and even brought it to me. I didn't have all the money at the time to buy it so I put half down and paid up today. Super guy I haven't met many people in this hobby who wasn't. Well maybe some LFS workers. Anyways here it is! Im very pleased. Thanks for looking!

    Now, I need advise...lol I have 100+ lbs of rock the problem is that when I took down my other tank I felt the rock in a rubbermaid bin and has been dry for about 5 weeks now. What all has to be done to get the rock usable again? or would it be better to start with fresh rock? I want to save at much $$$ as I can for a lighting system.

    I have done both in the past... wouldn't be a problem if it would work. I bleached alittle rock once and like the turn out. I was afraid to put it back in my tank tho.
